Ever been told a joke that went totally over your head? If yes, you will agree to be fortunate to laugh the scenario off and change the subject abruptly. The reverse is the case on the internet as things are a little different – You can have your post flooded with comments before realizing a phase of total ignorance. Naturally, jokes require a specific amount of brainpower and intelligence to figure out if it’s funny enough for the brain to laugh. At one point or the other in our life, we all have failed to make this connection, and missing the joke is a thing that has happened to the best of us. 

Indeed, this embarrassing moment has the potential to be eternalized faster than the screenshot of a smartphone. If you’ve ever been a victim of misinterpretation of a joke, do accept our condolence. A big thanks to this subreddit, r/woooosh, a group dedicated to salty and sour jokes that were left hanging; we’ve been able to compile hilarious examples of people who missed the point of a joke. Besides, they didn’t mean to, as they were making their innocent observations. Although some are downright annoying, the fact is these moments are even funnier than the joke itself. Take a look!
