r/wooosh Chastising by idiots
6 years ago
r/wooosh to explain to those that don't know is a meme that originated on reddit but is frequently shown on Youtube as well as other sites is when you type "r/wooosh to someone who has missed a joke You know like offering a logical explanation for what has happened rather than going with the joke answer.
For example:
Guy making joke: I'm Asian! (Stretches eye holes to look Asian.)
Guy logically explaining things: You're not Asian, you're just stretching your eye holes.
Woosher: r/wooosh
Anyways basically when you r/wooosh someone, you're chastising them for not getting a joke which is why I find it cringy. You're bullying them in sense. Not school bullying or bullying bullying, getting in their face on the internet bullying.
I mean seriously? Chastising someone for not getting a joke? I mean ok they didn't get the joke so fucking what? Just explain it to them then! Also a lot of the times I've been r/woooshed by someone, the jokes weren't even funny. Like there's a joke where you go to any animal video for example on Youtube and then you say the animal is any animal but what the animal really is. Like you go to a cat video and you say "That's a weird bird you got there." Someone like me will say "That's not a bird, that's a cat." then someone will inevitably say "r/wooosh".
It's not even funny. I mean calling something, something it's not? That's humor? Man if that's the best some people can come up with then I'd hate to see what the worst they can come up with humor is because that's damn bad.
If the joke isn't even funny, then is it really a big deal I didn't even get it? I mean you find what the joke means and big surprise! It turns out to be bullshit like show above!
Also the frequency that this happens is really obnoxious I mean every joke you don't get someone has to go "r/wooosh". It's like "LOL! I didn't get a substandard joke, I'm an idiot! Thanks for showing me up kind, so much smarter than me stranger!"
Point is, you don't need to and shouldn't chastise someone for not getting a fucking joke. I mean if jokes are supposed to be laid back, then why are you being so aggressive to someone for not getting them? It's hypocritical to say the least. It's like "Someone didn't get a JOKE! Better put my bullhorns on and shove my influence down their throat!"
It's humor turned into bullying and I don't like that.
So yeah I've had some things I said back to r/woooshers. Sometimes I'd say "Eh, fuck r/wooosh." or "r/wooosh r/swooosh" or "This is Youtube not reddit." or most recently "r/wooosh is boring."
Seriously this is one dumb meme that needs to go the way of the dinosaurs. Not everyone has the same sense or even understanding of humor so why chastise them for it?
I just... I don't know I felt the need to write this journal because right now someone is r/woooshing me and it's just so stupid that I'm writing about this whole thing.
So yeah turning humor into aggression is bullshit. Don't do it.
