Dawgsplaining

Dawgsplaining, Dawg spraining, Dawg-splaining:

The immature whining of a weak minded , delusional college fan base uttering constant and unfounded complaints concerning officiating ,usually involving whiny, nasal, crying sounds, due to a loss from being out played and/or out coached by superior opponent. Typical of a fan base that walks around with “Alabama swagger but has a Tiny Trophy case.”
“After three consecutive collapses and humiliating defeats at the hands of the Crimson Tide, I needed ear plugs at the Piggly Wiggly checkout line to drown out the incessant Dawgsplaining from the loser uga fans! “

devsplaining

When a software developer explains why the application (formally known as, 'teh codes') acts in a certain way that is surprising to the non-technical user.

Often the engineer will accidentally come off as arrogant or boorish. This may be to compensate for the fact they are trying to pass off a bug as intended behavior.... or that they are just as confused by this behavior as the end-user.

Dadsplaining

When a father answers his child's question, no matter how simple, with undesired and tangentially relevant information and life advise.
I asked my dad where the spare tire was and he must have gone on for half an hour dadsplaining how to change it. I'll be damned if that information didn't come in handy a couple months later.

dansplaining

When a blond swiss guy unnecessarily corrects or completes what someone is saying in a pompous, presumptuous and sometimes even slightly insolent manner
Stop explaining how the Federal Assembly works, what you are saying isn't even entirely correct.

Someone has to tell that swiss blond guy to stop correcting people eventhough they didn't ask for it. It's dansplaining and it is annoying everyone!
