It’s called a whoosh. When a joke goes so far over someone’s head that the sound can be physically heard. And it sounds like: “Whoosh.”

Or at least that’s what they’re saying on Reddit. There’s a whole section dedicated to Internet documented whooshes. And they’re hilarious.

A lot of people out there just really don’t have a sense of humor. That’s why they get whooshed. They can’t seem to sense sarcasm or irony either.

Here are 40 times a joke went completely over someone’s head:

1) No Outside Food in the Movie Theater

We’ve all done it before. Snuck outside food into the movie theater. But if they catch you, they won’t let you bring it into the theater.

2) The Chicken

This person clearly doesn’t realize they are the butt of this joke. This very bad joke. They don’t realize that they are the idiot.

3) Scorpion

So, people don’t know what scorpions are these days. They think that Drake just comes up with animals and that manifests the new animal into reality. Yup, this person went through life not knowing what a scorpion is.

4) Irony Lost

Irony was was lost on this commenter. They didn’t realize that the person who made the post was being ironic. They just made a comment calling out the irony without realizing it was irony.

5) Textdoor Neighbor

Textdoor neighbors are extemely intrusive. I don’t like people playing on my phone. This person still didn’t understand the whole textdoor neighbor concept.

6) Welcome to the Joke

This is what we call “late to the game.” This person didn’t realize they were reading a joke. They had to be welcomed into it.

7) F.R.I.E.N.D.S

Cute but… no. I mean, that’s pretty obvious. Except to the person who pointed out that there is no F in Phoebe.

8) Religious Feast

Wait, you mean they’re not eating the baby? This baby isn’t fighting for its life. It’s not about to get cooked?

9) Meteorologist

Meterologists do a lot more than follow meteors. And the person who wrote this post was just making a stupid joke. But that was lost on some people in the comments.

10) So Full of Themselves

Technically, Russian dolls are full of themselves. They are nesting dolls that have dolls within dolls. Someone wasn’t aware of that though.

11) BBC News Breaking

It’s important to be able to deciper credible news sources on the Internet. This person wasn’t able to do that. To be fair, this does look like it’s actually BBC News.

12) Over Your Head

This is a joke about going over your head that went over someone’s head. It’s a two-fer. She figured the plane was going over her head. Instead, it was the joke.

13) Eating Balloons

Sometimes dogs eat balloons. But this one didn’t. The photo is just upside down.

14) Racist Family

This person is pretty clueless. But who is more clueless? This person or the 13 people who upvoted the comment?

15) The Dumbest Animal in the Jungle

Angry people LOVE leaving comments on the Internet. Mostly to unleash their anger on others. This person is so angry they have no idea how dumb they are.

16) The Correction

There is nothing sadder than people on the Internet who go around correcting people’s posts. Wait, that’s not true. It’s sadder when they correct something that didn’t even need correcting.

17) When Dad Gets Home

Aww, what a sad joke. But Captain Obvious over here didn’t seem to get the joke. And he was kind of mean about it.

18) The Graduate

Wow… just wow. How do you not know this is supposed to be a joke by the first sentence? This person got to line four before they got suspicious.

19) The Grammar Police

Grammar police are the worst. Their sticks are so far up their butt they can’t recognize a joke when they see one. They see nothing other than grammar. I guess it makes them feel smart and superior.

20) Not True

The phrase: “No shit, Sherlock,” comes to mind. The only way this could be true is if Abraham Lincolin was a time traveler. But that is more possible to me than this meme being real.

21) Australian Bread

This person thinks it’s funny that someone posted a photo upside down. Apparently, they never got the joke about being Down Under. I wonder if anyone actually corrected the corrector.

22) Science Jokes

People on the Internet are crying out for help. Their anger towards the world is heartbreaking. I hope these people get the help they need for their anger.

23) Unrealistic Body Standards

And here we have another one. Someone needs to give these people a hug. Not having a sense of humor is just tragic.

24) Most Used Word in Each State

I’m not going to lie. This took me a minute to get because I was starring at my state. But you get it when you look at the map as a whole. This was a mega-whoosh.

25) Double Whoosh

This person was double whooshed. They didn’t realize that this was a joke. They also didn’t understand the post at all.

26) Paintball Scars

Hickies… these are supposed to be hickies. But this sweet unsuspecting commentor didn’t realize that. The joke just whooshed them by.

27) Hurricane vs. Hurricane

This is a post meant to point out the ridiculousness of some political posts. But not everyone got the joke. Another comment from a Captain Obvious.

28) Where Ted At?

Where the hell is Ted? He needs to stop hiding behind the lies. He needs to get himself to one of his own damn talks.

29) Bluetooth Hose

I mean, it does look a like a Bluetooth hose. And those would be really cool. It would probably cost a lot more than $100 though.

30) Inside of a Violin

This is freaking hilarious. To live with that much anger and resentment created from delusion is so disheartening. I wouldn’t want to live a life not being able to appreciate the Wu Tang Clan.

31) The Mirror Factory

Get it? See yourself in a mirror factory because there are mirrors everywhere. This guy didn’t.

32) Because You’re Stupid

If you ask me, the guy in this situation is the idiot. He’s telling her that she’s NOT the hottest single of the week. Also, this is just so lame. You can’t call someone stupid with that lame of a pick up line.

33) It’s About You

Imagine blaming others for your social awkwardness and inability to score? Imagine going on the Internet to tell everyone about it while you sit in your mom’s basement where you spend all your time. I can’t either, but this post is about those guys.

34) All Look the Same

This joke whooshed this person real hard. They are trying to prove that most races think people of other races look the same. This person didn’t get that.

35) Sad Face

That is one unhappy piece of bread. It looks like it is in a lot pain. Could be mental or physical.

36) Cultural Appropriation

Sharing used to mean caring, but somehow that got changed with cultural appropriation. Still this joke was completely lost on Jeannie. She didn’t get the joke or care that the family was rendered homeless. She only cared about white people not being able to eat delicious Chinese food.

37) Corporate Whoosh

Wow. this is a really good one. This is what we call a corporate whoosh. Technically, that still counts as a virgin though.

38) Condom Challenge

Theses condoms are so ridiculous. This person should be asking why people are putting condoms on their face. He didn’t get the joke that the condom failed and this person was born as a result.

39) Name A Salad After Me

I love a good dumb joke. But apparently they’re not for everyone. Including people who do not like salad.

40) Freedom Has No Boundaries

There is no scale when you’re scaling America. That’s because freedom has no boundaries. And this guy doesn’t know that the Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4, 1776.
