A word used to describe someone who constantly explains things, especially things pertaining to science. Most times facticle people over explain simple things, listing out all the facts and everything in between.
Person 1: Wow, look at that beautiful rainbow. I wonder why it looks that way. (obviously just stating not asking for an answer)
Person 2: The rainbow looks that way because the sun's light reflects off the rain drops. In their relationship the raindrops act as prisms separating the spectrum of colors.
Person 1: Whoa man, don't go so facticle on me.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
