Apparently there are three definitions or applications or whatever of "Whiff."

1. The original meaning: When someone posts a subtle joke and someone else responds to that post not seeing the joke, while making the same exact joke in a not-so-subtle manner. This is a classic whiff.

2. The easy meaning: When someone responds to a joke post sincerely, completely missing the joke.

3. The Paigow/most popular (lately) meaning: A response to anyone who doesn't read your post in the way only you could understand it. Or, in the alternative, a cop-out when someone nails you for making no sense.

Whatever the meaning, it has been played out for roughly two years now.
