A Reverse Whoosh occurs when someone pretends, as a joke, not to "get" someone else's joke, by satirizing someone correcting the original joke teller. When others, in turn, try to correct and mock the stupidity of the person pretending not to get the original joke - only now in earnest, thereby revealing their own stupidity and lack of humor - they themselves have fallen prey to the old Reverse Whoosh.
guy 1: "......squid pro quo" a pun
guy 2: "Actually, it's "QUID pro quo," not "SQUID." It's Latin." a joke
guy 1 or 3: "whoosh!" i.e., my/his joke went right over your head
guy 2: "reverse whoosh" i.e., no, but mine went over yours

Derived from the 'Whoosh' reply to a joke which goes over non-intellectual heads. Originally signified by waving the flat hand just above the head.
The 'Woosh Parrot' was developed as a medium to convey the same message in a visual form for internet fora such as 'Pistonheads'

I've just seen an Ambulance with the word spelt 'Ambiwlans',,, Has dumbing down gone too far?

A whoosh bag is somebody who acts very similarly to a douche bag but maybe just because they are high or drunk.

Referring to something which was briefly in existence or evident and which is quickly removed or which rapidly disappears.
The article was on the Daily Express site for only a few minutes and whoosh cluck it was gone.
I saw him in the bar but before I got a chance to talk to him, whoosh cluck he was gone.
