I was ready to drive off the road while listening to Tom Ashbrook's program On Point because he kept saying "unpack this"

WTF is wrong with the word explain?

The kids picked this up from a friend's mom, "No offense, but..." except they never used it properly. I finally got them to knock it off by explaining that what ever comes next is going to be offensive, you know it is going to be offensive, and therefore shouldn't say it, thus negating the need for "No offense, but..."
