texplain

To attempt to convey any concept of significant via some texting aparatus. This attempt is inevitably confounded by the limits of undersized digital buttons, autocorrection of words, numerous spelling errors, and the distance between the explainer and explanee.

Let's meet and talk about this; I simply can't texplain it!

TEXPLAIN.

TEXPLAIN. When texting is not practical because the message will take too many words to explain or it’s confusing, you simply ask the other person to, “Call me. it’s too hard to texplain.”

Techsplaining

When a user in an online tech support forum, especially on reddit, responds to a specific technical question with unsolicited hardware/software advice, personal endorsements of unrelated technology, unrelated tangents, or put-downs about the asker's use of technology or level of technical ability. Portmanteau of "technology" and "mansplaining".

User 1: "I have a Windows 7 PC that keeps freezing every time I start a certain program. Can anyone help me figure out why it's doing this?"
User 2: "Bro wtf, why are you still using Windows 7? Are you a complete moron? Just upgrade to Windows 11 already. It's so much better. If your computer still runs Windows 7, you're living in the fucking dark ages. Get a laptop with a Ryzen CPU and at least 32GB of RAM. It's better for gaming and really worth the price."
User 1: "Thank you for techsplaining. Are you going to answer my question or not?"

terfsplaining

When a terf or gc(gender critical) individual explains how transgender individuals transition works, even when trans people almost always know more about transitioning. It's almost all done out of ignorance and joking in an echo chamber that terfs have created.

Terf: "you will always be a woman even if you cut off your dick for a rot pocket"
Trans woman:" stop terfsplaining to me and open google"
