Explain what a wheel is, how a wheel works, and how to build a wheel

The act of wasting time and resources explaining something so fundamentally basic that anyone with half a brain already understands it, usually performed by someone who thinks they're being helpful but is actually being condescending. This phrase is invoked when someone launches into a lengthy tutorial on a topic that everyone in the room already mastered in kindergarten. It's the verbal equivalent of mansplaining, but for basic concepts. The classic response to "let me explain how this works" when you've been doing it successfully for decades. Also used in corporate settings when a new hire spends an hour explaining their "innovative" idea that's literally just how things are already done.

Example: "My new coworker spent 20 minutes explaining what a PDF is during the meeting. I wanted to say, 'Dude, we don't need you to explain what a wheel is, how a wheel works, and how to build a wheel—just attach the file and send it.' But I smiled and nodded, because that's what you do when someone is trying to be helpful but is actually wasting everyone's time."

Explain How to Build a Wheel

The act of providing an excruciatingly detailed tutorial on something so fundamentally simple that anyone with basic competence already knows how to do it, usually performed by someone who just learned it themselves and is desperate to feel useful. This phrase is invoked when someone tries to teach you something you've been doing successfully for years, or when a corporate training session covers material that could have been an email. It's the pedagogical equivalent of explaining how to breathe—technically informative, practically useless, and slightly insulting. The subtext is always "I assume you're an idiot," delivered with a smile and a PowerPoint.

Explain How to Build a Wheel Example: "The new software trainer spent an hour explaining how to build a wheel—literally walking us through how to click the 'new document' button, save a file, and use the undo function. We've all been using computers since the 90s. Twenty people silently screamed into their coffee mugs while the trainer beamed, proud of their thoroughness."

Explain What a Wheel Is

The act of defining something so universally understood that defining it is either a philosophical exercise or a profound waste of time. This phrase is used when someone treats a basic concept as if it's esoteric knowledge, or when a manager asks for a "high-level overview" of something everyone already knows. It's the verbal equivalent of explaining what air is—you can do it, but why would you? The only people who need a wheel explained are infants, aliens, and that one coworker who somehow got hired despite never having used a computer before.

Explain What a Wheel Is Example: "At the strategy meeting, the consultant asked us to explain what a wheel is—to define our core business, our mission, our reason for existing. We'd been there for a decade. The wheel was fine. The consultant got paid $50,000 to be told what a wheel is by the people who built it. We're still angry."

Explain How a Wheel Works

The act of breaking down the mechanics of something that is intuitively obvious to anyone with functional eyesight and basic physics intuition. This phrase is deployed when someone overexplains a simple process, treating it as if it's rocket science rather than, well, a wheel. It's what happens when your friend who just took a physics class tries to explain why a ball rolls, or when a politician gives a 20-minute speech about why they support something that everyone already supports. The explanation is usually technically correct and completely unnecessary, like a detailed analysis of why water is wet.

Explain How a Wheel Works Example: "My date spent 15 minutes explaining how a wheel works—friction, rotation, axles, the whole deal. I'd asked if he wanted to go for a bike ride. He thought I needed to understand the physics before I could safely pedal. I rode home alone, understanding wheels perfectly, questioning my life choices."

sex explained

1) A man or a girl at school will get attracted to one another, because the man's penis is so large and the girl can see it, and go to one of their houses.
2) The girl will lead the man to her bedroom, and she'll strip down to nothing, revealing her vagina, and boobs.
3) The guy may squeeze the girl's boobs for a bit, or just enjoy looking at her vagina.
4) The girl will get the man to take off his clothes, revealing the penis. After that, the girl will go down to her hands and knees.
5) The girl opens her mouth, and closes her lips on the penis, while the man cums in her mouth.
6) Once the girl is finished swallowing cum, the man grabs the girl by the ass, and throws her onto the bed.
7) The man will take his penis and shove it into the vagina, and the girl will screech a little bit. The man starts moving it around the vagina, continuing to cum.
8) While the man is doing that, the girl will continue to scream, and start encouraging the man to go harder, or faster, agreeing that this is the right thing.

They may stay up for a while at night doing this.

I was at school with one of the hottest girls, in the school, Alexis, and when the bell rang, I knew I had to do something. When I went out the door with her, I pointed down, and she whispered to me, "nice dick." She drove me to her house. When we got there, she led me to her room, and she started taking off her shirt, revealing her massive boobs, then took off her pants revealing her clean, shaved vagina that I was waiting a while to see. She started to come back over to me, and she took off everything I was wearing so that we were both completely naked. I stood there. I looked down, to (what I knew) was her on her hands and knees, walking like an animal towards my penis. She put her head right in front of my dick, and opened her mouth, then continued forward until she had the perfect amount of my cock inside her mouth. She closed her mouth, and I cummed. I gave her as much cum as I could give her in the short minute that I had my penis inside her mouth. She reeled back when she was satisfied. I grabbed her by her vagina and boobs, and thrusting her onto the bed. I stood on my knees, with my penis ready, and when I was ready, I came forward and landed my cock inside her vagina. When she squealed, I leaned forward, laying on her completely. I started kissing her a lot while moving my penis up and down inside her vagina. I told her, "enjoy my sperm. your baby is complete." With that, I cummed again. I don't know why girls like cum so much, I said in my mind. sex explained.
