Hamplanet 

An absolutely, ginormous, tub of lard on legs. We aren't just talking about your slightly obese English teacher here we're talking about those people whose appearance is more than physically disgusting. Usually at 5 feet tall maybe an inch or two larger and over two hundred pounds of "curves" they are usually seen at Walmart scarfing down food and driving around on scooters made for handicapped people. They love to troll the fresh produce section for random person to call anorexic. Prepare yourself for bad grammar, insults, and "curves" if you ever encounter one.
Dan: Holy shit Paul Hamplanet alert!
Paul: SHIT WHY IS THE WORLD SHAKING.
Hamplanet: YOU CAN'T HANDLE MUH CURVES!

hetsplaining is basically mansplaining but hetsplaining instead. its a heterosexual explanation for an otherwise not heterosexual thing. a great example of hetsplaining is in folklore: the long pond studio sessions, when taylor swift is explaining the meaning behind the song "betty".

she explains that the song is from a male pov, when actually its just fucking gay. in giving a heterosexual explanation for a gay thing, she has hetsplained the song.
"man, i wish taylor swift would stop hetsplaining all her gay ass songs and just admit that she wrote a song about a woman..."
"taylor swift hetsplaining betty was harmful to her queer fans because they got doxxed by her straight fans. dude she should just be honest when she writes a gay song, like its better than jumping through ALL these hoops JUST to make it straight"
"dude the male pov shit is still gay as FUCK through"

"the problem is that the majority of her fans eat her hetsplanations up like its nothing...she really can say ANYTHING and her fans will believe her..."

Hanssplaining 

When a superior human being certifies his dominant intelligence by explaining something complex in a simple matter, thereby implying that you are stupid if you do not recognize or understand said term.
Person 1: Surely you guys know about Fourier analysis?

Person 2: No I don't and I didn't ask, no need to be hanssplaining it.

Hamplanet 

A massively obese person. And we're not talking your average overweight, unattractive person; we are talking, for example, 5 feet 6 inches and 400 pounds or heavier. More often than not, someone who would be classified as supermorbidly obese.
In Northern Illinois, only the hamplanet women appear to be single and looking and not in closed cliques.

Mamsplained

When you have a valid point about something but a female has to tell you how you're wrong simply because you're a man and you had something to say about a feminist topic...yet they say the exact same thing and the point is only acknowledged because a female said it.
Well I had a good point but she mamsplained it to make me look like I shouldn't be apart of the conversation.

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.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
