Mansplaining is still alive and well, my friends!

And, while it’s not a good thing, it is pretty funny when a man’s attempt at being an authority on something blows up in his face.

And this one is a doozy!

The video you’re about to see was posted by a woman named Lauren-Ann Graham.

The initial text overlay reads, “The guy at the auto parts store trying to rip me off…”

But did Lauren-Ann have something to tell him.

The video then cuts to her standing in front of a space shuttle and the text overlay reads, “When I’m literally a rocket scientist.”

Ouch…I bet that guy feels pretty dumb right about now…

The final clip in Lauren-Ann’s video showed her using power tools, just to drive the point home.

I think it’s safe to say that she knows what she’s doing…
