Another version (extra cold, I think!):
Did you hear about the mansplainer who fell into a hole?
It was a well, actually.

That makes a lot more sense and now is actually funny.
Yours actually makes sense. At least written anyway, if you say the joke I'm sure you could emphasise the "Well, actually.." just right.
Maybe I'm being dense, but I'm gonna need a mansplanation for this one.
I think it’s a play on “well, actually blah blah blah fact maybe” rebuttals.
Hate when I catch myself "Well, actually"ing. I'll either try to reword it to not sound so dickish or I'll discard it if I think it's not actually helpful or interesting.
I think I've eliminated the "[well, ]actually" from my speech patterns (unless using it sparingly for comedic effect) due to the memes as well. Turns out the dumb internet image macros can have a positive impact after all.
Just omit either "well" or "actually". Maybe swap both for "surprisingly" or "unfortunately" depending on the context of the correction. I understand the struggle :(
Typical Redditor lol
My wife asked me what "mansplaining" is and now I'm not sure how to answer her.
you're in a dangerous loop.
Accurate representation of wish fulfillment.
Actually it was a tree, he fell into a tree from a great height
I guess he couldn't see that well.
Well well well...
They didn't.
on mastodon, saying anything as a guy is mansplaining
