"Whisting" (verb) is what happens when wind sweeps rain off a roof or other flat surface with the force of the wind. Elements of "whistling," "winding," "whiffing," all come to mind. We've all seen the effect when we see rain move off ("whisted off") rooftops, buildings, car hoods - that sheeting action brought by rain and wind, freshly whisting off into chaos.
We watched the storm in the late afternoon, the wind whisting the driving rain off the nearby rooftops in transparent sheets, like the veils of some ghostly bride.

This expression was originally by Rednecks in the USA, but achieved wider recognition and usage due to combined operations between the US Army and British troops. It is used to describe something that is totally futile, a waste of time and effort and something you do not wish to do. By extension it can also be used to mean a person who is a waste of time and resources, someone with whom you do not wish to associate, that the world would be better off without and who is one of nature’s biggest mistakes, in short a complete and total Malcolm.
