eurosplaining 

When Europeans smugly extol the virtues of their country in relation to the United States with respect to education and healthcare implying we don't actually know what's good for us and without heeding to and respecting the inertial power of the corporate oligarchy.
Many Western Europeans view the United States in such a broad brush strokes, they believe our issues are simple cases of widespread, willful ignorance rather than struggle against centuries of oligarchy. At cocktail parties, those afflicted feel compulsion to explain us into a state of enlightenment, scarcely realizing the extent of their eurosplaining with statements like, "We don't have any significant debt via education here in Germany. Seems like we are economically more feasible. Just a hint"

Exposplaining

A Digitallighting variant where the perpetrator “explains” to the target why an exposé about them is justified, often in the exposé itself. The target is told that they “forced” the exposé by their behavior, that the exposé is actually a service to them, or that they should be grateful for the “accountability.” Exposplaining adds a layer of gaslighting to public call‑outs, making the target feel that their own actions caused the harm and that they should accept the punishment.
Example: “The 30‑minute video exposé ended with the creator saying ‘I hope this helps you grow.’ Exposplaining: framing a public dismantling as a favor.”

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
