What's on your mug?

Looking in the internet comment section you may see "r/whoosh", or "whoosh" and wonder "wHaT dOeS iT mEaN?". I got chu. If you see a dumb comment that completely misses the point of the subject (for example someone not getting/taking a joke), then you type "whoosh" which means it went way over their head!

Person1: 911 was done by Teletubbies Person2: lmao Person3: NO IT WASN'T!!! Why do people keep saying that *gives a long ass theory on what their opinion is* Person2: r/whoosh!

Single word exclamation, accompanied by a gesture where the hand is swept palm down over the head from front to back with about three inches clearance. Indicates that the joke just told was too sophisticated for the listener and has gone "way over their head". Sometimes comes to mind when reading feedback on Urban Dictionary quality control.

Spoken otomatopeia that indicates when something has gone over the listener's head.

A: This movie is so gay! B: There are no homosexuals in this movie. A: Whoosh!

(n.) the sound of something flying by very quickly, deadlines for instance. (v.) to pass by very rapidly.

"I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound as they fly by." - Douglas Adams. A snowball whooshed past my face, missing by an infinitesmal distance; I let out my battle cry that woke up the whole neighborhood.

Something you say to someone who didn't understand the sarcasm/joke. As if it wen't right over their head or they saw right through it.

"That christmas sweater looks wonderful jerry.. Even in summer." "Thank you!" "Whoosh..."
