"Whoosh!" The onomatopoeic expression used to describe the audible swift movement of air and is defined by the Oxford dictionary as "the sudden movement and sound of air or water rushing past," this could also be attributed to the sound an object makes as it goes flying overhead at speed. The phrase is commonly seen in YouTube comments sections and all over the wider net such as on forums and image boards when a poor user fails to catch a joke or the use of sarcasm as it goes rushing metaphorically over their head all to the amusement of others.

We’ve compiled 10 of the most egregious instances of people just not getting the humor or sarcasm, all thanks to the great folks over at /r/woosh and /r/woooosh. Here’s hoping you too get the jokes and aren’t left being the wooshee (or woosher?). Hmm…enjoy!
