Tysplaining

The act of mansplaining to not only women, but men as well. The individual committing the act believes he has a wealth of knowledge far beyond what he actually does. This includes subject areas in which the individual has absolutely no experience.

Caution, correcting the offender will have little to no affect on his behaviour and is likely to cause him to explain himself further, digging an even deeper hole.
Person 1: Man, he won’t stop Tysplaining
Person 2: I know! Last week he explain the circulatory system to a cardiologist. He got all of his facts wrong.

Texplanation

To send a text message to someone with a lame explanation of why you can't attend your rendez-vous/ party / hang-out / drinks. (Usually a lie.) The main purpose of the texplanation is to avoid the awkward phone conversation where the person to which you are talking totally knows you're lying and doesn't want to accuse you.
Jenny: Ugh, I don't feel like going to Brooke's graduation get together with her family. Her mom's boobs are awful and hard and it hurts when she hugs me. I have to send that bitch a texplanation.

*Whips out cellphone*

Text message: "Hey Brooke! Sory i cant come 2 ur party! my cat is ded and im jst 2 sad!"

Thank God I could texplain my way out of that!

I was texting with Kimberly yesterday and she asked why I couldn't hang out later. Between working late, getting a flat tire and breaking up with my boyfriend I told her the reason was way too long to "texplain" and that I would call her later.
