Misliberal 

a miserable, bitter liberal who cant get on with their lives since Trump got elected; typically spending a good time of their days complaining on social media about Trump and obsessively sharing every negative story - they are basically like a political Smeagol from Lord of the Rings, banished to their self- imposed tomb of mental anguish
Patricia and I used to be friends, but she's gone off the deep end and become a full blown misliberal since the last election

Milliterally 

adverb. To use the word "literally" in a figurative way, removing its usefulness at providing clarity in matters of discerning hyperbole from reality. And you thought Gen X was hot for irony.
"She literally used the word "literally"Milliterally in a sentence."
"You mean she used it figuratively, don't you?
"Who the hell knows?"

Malliteracy

A condition in which someone consistently writes words and phrases incorrectly; distinct from Illiteracy in that a malliterate person can read and write but simply gets words and phrases wrong.

Malliteracy usually occurs when a person writes words and phrases he or she has only heard but never read, such as:

1. Alot (instead of "a lot.")
2. Alright (instead of "all right.")
3. One in the same (instead of "one and the same.")
4. Pacifically (instead of, "specifically.")
5. Dominate (used as an adjective instead of "dominant.")
6. Volumptuous (instead of "voluptuous.")

(As an aside, if you read an online dating profile from a woman and she uses both of those last two words in the same profile, the odds are extremely high that she's under 5'5" tall and weighs over 300 lbs)
I had a hell of a time trying to read my friend's email, because his malliteracy made it almost impossible to figure out which words he was trying to use.
