explaination 

An explanation that makes a discussed situation less plain by complicating what's apparent.

Also describes the process of looking a gift horse in the mouth and naming each tooth, after you bring it home of course. That's appreciation.

Often used by doctors, lawyers, and sociologically sane scientists for profit. (The mad ones do it just for the kicks).

When "It works, just because," is no longer an acceptable explanation due to decreased intimidation and a refusal to settle.
"I've just invented a new word!"
"Could you give me a brief explaination?"
"One day a character with a ballooned ego blew his thumb until his brain burst to which he thought 'Gee, that was fun, I wonder what else I can do? What would Jason do? Hell in a hand basket? Better quit while I'm ahead.'"
"What's the word though?"
"I thought I just explained it to you!"

*Bitch Slap*

capitalist exploitation 

Capitalist exploitation simply means the fact that after its commodification the price of your work force on the market is much lower than the value it produces.

Think about it this way: worker X in company Y is producing commodity Z (goods&services). But a wage's worth of commodity Z is created by worker X in only a few hours of labour. The value his work force is rented for by the capitalist is much smaller than the value it creates. The private person owning company Y (don't forget corporations are also legal private subjects) then

appropriates the surplus value created by the labourer.

Simply put: if a labourer creates the value of his wage in a very small amount of his labouring time, who then, is he in fact labouring for most of the time?

Not only does capitalist exploitation entail that most of the value that working people create will be appropriated from them, but also that their limited precious time on this planet will be appropriated from them.
Mark sold 100 fast food meals priced at $5 in 8 hours. In two days the total value he creates is $1000. Yet he has to work for a full month to receive a salary, a wage of $800. Because Mark in unaware of capitalist exploitation he believes he is reverencing a fair pay for his work when in fact he is labouring extensively for the profit of other people.

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!
