Misspellation 

Very sexy variation of misspelling. When someone misspells a word because they are incredibly stupid, that's a misspellation.
Len wrote "wasy" instead of "easy", I tried to correct her mistake and wrote "wast": I misspelled her misspellation.

Misspellrony 

When hipsters intentionally misspell words, using common internet lingo such as srsly, n' junk, LAWLZ, and wtfbbq to be ironic. However, they do it so often they they are no longer being ironic and instead, just incredibly stupid. This often occurs in kids who frequent 4chan.
Indie Kid: OH HAI THERE.

Awful Misspellings 

The result of a failed attempt made by someone with only a vague idea of what the 'English Language' actually is.

Easily notable as not a typo error, as a typo is still readable in normal language. No, one who is an awful misspeller actually has no idea whatsoever how that word should be, and will try and write phoenetically.
