boardsplaining

When your Board of Directors tells you something you should be doing for your company that is either completely wrong, completely impossible, or completely obvious.
The board member was boardsplaining to the Director of Engineering that if she hired more engineers, more work would get done.

Bandsplaining

When someone goes above and beyond to illustrate they know more about a band than someone who has expressed interest in that band, especially with a condescending tone or attitude .
"I see you have a Motorhead shirt on. I bet you cant name 3 songs off the Inferno album . See, most people only know Ace of Spades, but....."

(This person was bandsplaining to someone else )

Second definition: when you ask a band what kind of music they play and they go on for 10 minutes, listing obscure bands and saying how you'll never really understand it until you listen to their album.

E.g- Chad: what kind of music does your band play?

Tim: we're like a mixture of punk and country, with a little jazz/reggae. We have some tones of Johnny Cash from '72-73, plus some hints of Zanphire. But like his B-side stuff, not his popular/mainstream stuff. But that doesnt really explain it all the way.

Tim is bandsplaining. Second definition submitted by Chris Jacobs
