malcontenty

adj. Not too contenty.

Real citation: "The Target Powers That Be have taken me off the sales floor. My new assignment is as a part of the group known as Presentation. If today is any indication, Presentation involves getting up at five in the morning and then sharing a shift with the frightening malcontents they don't allow on the regular day shift because...well...they're too frightening and malcontenty."
(Michael, "Dirty Cynicism (or Not A 9/11 Post)," Nov. 9, 2006, Notes From a Darkened Room, http://nfadr.blogspot.com/2006/09/dirty-cynicism-or-not-911-post_11.html)

Made-up citation: "To deal with malcontenty elements in your classroom or death squad, use a firm voice and make plenty of eye contact."
