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!
Example:
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!
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.
Example:
2. paris
Capital of North Africa.

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.

Whoosh is the term to describe an enthusiastic
swishing sound, often used when one is talking about something totally unbelievable that perhaps may have
zoomed past unbelievably fast, both in a literal or figurative sense.
Example:
"So, like, there was this thing, and it was so fast, man, it was like
WHOOSH and then bam! It was gone!"
or
"I dunno, man, I'm totally out of it today. I mean, today somebody was talking to me and everything they said just kept
whooshing past me, y'know? Just like
whoosh, and stuff."
