Assplaining 

1. When a "well-meaning" asshole of any gender bestows unsolicted and obvious (or obviously stupid) advice.

2. A caring act of condescension.
Elder: You know, if you stopped going to Starbucks, you could pay off your student loans.

assplaining 

What a wife or girlfriend does when her husband comes home from work. Including feeding him dinner, spreading her ass, and putting the children to bed.

Something every good wife does.
My friend asked me where my wife is.

I said "She's assplaining".

ma'amsplaining 

Counterpoint to mansplaining. When a woman explains something to a man as if he were her special needs child. Usually done in a condescending and demeaning manner.

agesplaining 

Like mansplaining, this occurs when someone who is older or grew up in a different time/generation tries to explain something without realizing that the younger person they are talking to knows more on that topic than they do.

Valid for use when the person perceives themself as being older whether they actually are or not and still explains in the same condescending fashion.

Also used for when the elder explains something that no longer is culturally valid in our society, such as the means for a student in the US to be able to be debt-free when graduating. Often the agesplained statement comes after "when I was your age."
Augustus was agesplaining saving for retirement, little did he know that I've had a retirement account since my 18th birthday, longer than he claims to have started saving.

AIsplaining 

The AI explanation of something. Where AI takes your input and regurgitates it back to you in generic terminology, insisting that "The Real Tuth Is" to demonstrate more knowledge about your area of expertise than you have.

- When someone uses AI-generated responses to comment on your social media content. Pasting your post into their preferred GenAI tools, then copying the answer straight into the comments of your post.

- Mansplaining 2.0
AIsplaining this article back to me isn't a good look for you.

Did you just AIsplain my expert topic back to me, and leave the em dash in?!

Abbsplaining 

Abbsplaining : v. The action of attempting to explaining something obvious to peers, who already clearly understand the topic at hand, in a condescending way.
Even though it was implicit that the VĂ­ctor understood the meaning behind the mockery, his peer felt the need to start abbsplaining the situation at hand. She was immediately expelled from the group.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.
