When a woman starts babbling inconsistently like she's trying to save herself from a beating by her pimp or man of ill repute.
When Pretty Ricky asked Mary where was his money, she started hoe-splaining as to why she didn't have it.

Get the hoe-splainingmug. URL-splaining (aka linksplaining) is when you instead of engaging in conversation online, you post a link of an article which serves as a proxy for actual conersation.

Get the URL-splainingmug. 2. When a white person commits a heinous act only to have it explained away by other way people as "not that bad" or is otherwise given the benefit of the doubt in a way that would not never happen for anybody who wasn't white.
3. Actually it doesn't even have to be a heinous act. It can even be normal behavior. Like the way they admire other white people from Europe. They would break their necks trying to help someone who speaks French or German. Let someone speak Spanish and they just shout something like, "Speak English!"
Ex. Mexicans are "foreigners" or "immigrants" (even thought they're actually from the same continent!) but white people from Europe are "travelers" or "expats".

Real life examples of White-'splaining:
Real Life Example 1: White man who is the father of 2 was found guilty of possessing kiddie porn.
Response from another white person: "Just because he had kiddie porn doesn't mean he was a bad father - unless it was his kids in the pictures."
Real Life Example 2: Those black people just keep shooting each other. Their neighborhoods are filled with crime. We should lock them all up.
Response from white people after Columbine, Newtown, Chris Benoit and every other white mass shooting: This a terrible tragedy but there's nothing we can do about it. It just happened.
Random Example 3: White guy robs a bank: He was at the end of his rope trying to feed his family. Mexican guy robs a bank: Those people shouldn't be here anyway.

Get the White-'splainingmug. So I was man-splaining to my wife that toothpaste is best squeezed from the bottom and not from the middle of the tube.

Get the Man-splainingmug. A play on "mansplainer," it captures someone in SOMa, NJ who is overly eager to "educate" others on their ultra-woke worldview, even when it's riddled with contradictions or hypocrisy. It nods to the self-righteousness and instability while keeping it tongue-in-cheek.
Rea was SOMa-splaining to the terrorized new moms in her group who didn't understand the local political culture.

Person1: I think Linux is neat
Person2: I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux,
is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.
Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component
of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell
utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day,
without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU
which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are
not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a
part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system
that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run.
The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself;
it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is
normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system
is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux"
distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
Person1: You didn't have to splain it. I know already. I just don't care.

Get the splainmug. A command to shut someone up when you don't want to hear what the other person has to say, nor explain the reason why.
Larry tried explaining his ambitious unrealized dreams to Anne, but there was no way Anne could understand his rambling lectures, and half baked ideas.
As soon as Larry would say one of his key words Anne was on que like a conditioned Pavlov Dog with rabies uncontrollably command Larry to stop splaining.
Larry would pout, and stammer in response, but with no hope of continuing.
