Nahh mate. Woosh is a common phrase that is used when somebody missed the joke and took a joke seriously. ❤️

Just like in this post. Its obvious that they acutally use them as mirrors. And you pointing that out makes it seem you missed the joke. Hence why i commented woosh. As this is something you say in this situation.

It comes from the subreddit r/woosh

As in - "woosh, that was the sound of the joke that just flew over your head" - to point the poster to the fact that they missed the joke in the post or took a joke for a serious post
