dadsplaining

When, upon confirming his target does in fact know how to do something, a dad explains it anyways.

Dad: Hey son, I think it would be good to know how to change a tire in case of emergency.

Son: I actually know how to do that. I popped a tire last year and luckily had a spare. YouTube is super helpful.

Dad: So the first thing you're going to want to do is...

Son: Please stop dadsplaining this to me!

Dadsplaining

Similar to mansplaining, but used to explain topics outside the realm of expertise in a condescending or patronizing manor to those without parental experience.

The chef was dadsplaining to my astrophysicist colleagues why the Earth is truly flat.

Dunsplaining

When an ill informed person tries to explain something to an expert of their field.

Idiot: You would know this if you took a science class.
PHD: I wrote the article you just miss referenced. Are you Dunsplaining?
