Thinsplaining 

An incredibly idiotic way for people who believe in "thin privilege" make skinny women seem like jerks for sharing their experiences with skinny shaming, generally used in "body positive" tumblr blogs .
"omg yesterday I was talking about how I was bullied for my weight and Sarah actually tried to tell me that she was bullied for her weight to, the skinny bitch!1!1"

"omg thinsplaining is sooo real"

Words you can keep

thinsplaining 

A thinsplainer will tell you about all the woes of being skinny that we already know and sympathize with, only to invalidate your problems. They are naturally skinny people who start quacking about it only when anyone heavier talks about their problems. Similar to men who only bring up men's problems to invalidate women's problems.

This is so that they too. can have the joy of taking part in the oppression Olympics, since they often get left out, due to conforming to society's standards of beauty.

After whining about how oppressed they are, they go back to eating whatever they want and not gaining a pound. Usually a woman.
I was talking about how it's easier for skinny and pretty girls to get what they want, when Skinny Nelly started thinsplaining how hard it is when people don't take you seriously because you're so pretty.

transplaining 

When a trans-person tries to explain your sexual identity or orientation to you contrary to the fact that this is a personal choice and everyone has the right to identify as they please.
Person A: I'm super-straight
Person B (trans): That's transphobic, genital preference isn't a sexual identity..
Person A: Please don't transplain to me, I know what I am and it's not for you to decide. Transplaining is superphobic.

Transplaining 

When a Transgender person or an ally tries explaining sexuality and science to Super Straight people and tries to invalidate their very real and valid identity in the process.
Trans: there's no such thing as a biological female read up on your science. And Super Straight can't be a sexuality it's a preference.

Super Straight: You're Transplaining. I don't know where you're going with this... But it's not in Super Straight pants.

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.

Similar to TLDR
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!
