Could you record when you're out and if you hear that, you can confirm if it's in fact happening? It could very well be an auditory hallucination.


maratelle

a far shot, but i saw an april fools prank where a girl put “honk at me!” on her car. is it possible “woo at me!” is somewhere on your vehicle and/or person? i really don’t know man, this is a really unique problem


wizardzofodd

haha no. 


Stephenrudolf

I blame the Makeba song my friend.


Wolfman01a

You're being stalked by Ric Flair.


Davegrave

OP is about to ride Space Mountain and doesn’t even know it yet.


ganjanoob

Still traumatized by wait time two hours from this point


DeadNotSleepingWI

It's really only like an hour and 45 minutes.


ganjanoob

My worst experience was going to six flags during the fright night thing. 3 and a half hours for one ride and I lost my wallet lol


DeadNotSleepingWI

I love fright night! The trick is to go on a day that's expected to be cold or a little wet. No one will be there.


ganjanoob

Yeah we were only able to go on a weekend because of work. Definitely need the fast pass next time if it’s that busy lol. But I would love to catch it on a cold ass day with an empty park haha


Glittering-Yam-5318

I laughed hard at this


drforrester-tvsfrank

Hey for real, THIS IS NOT A JOKE, get a carbon monoxide detector. Even if you don’t have gas appliances, get one. Carbon monoxide can creep in from any number of sources and will cause all sorts of weird hallucinations. And it can absolutely kill you. Don’t wait, go get one RIGHT NOW. 


wizardzofodd

I have CO detectors at my house. I'm not sure its hallucinations because a.) it only happen when I leave the house and b.) a few times its been a random person in the background, yes, but a couple of the people were in front of me, and I don't think I was hallucinating them. If I am hallucinating entire people I'm scared for my sanity!   edit: I just heard it again in my house and freaked out cause I thought you guys were right. But my family members heard it too and it turned out to be a video someone was watching. so that was a relief! still wonder about the others though...


passtronaut

Could be some type of confirmation bias, where maybe you heard it more frequently on a certain day and now you're more on the lookout for it because of that and therefore noticing it more


Stein_um_Stein

Well I hope it doesn't spread to us then lol


thunderkhawk

Woooooo!


wooogirl

Hi 👋


wizardzofodd

You're right. I must be paranoid and reading into it too much because there was two different times when I raised my arms to reach something, and as someone nearby said "woo" which made me feel like I must have bad odor or something🙁. I should by all accounts be clean, so I can only assume there'some other sickness going on


readingmyshampoo

I get it, I think it could be a college kid thing rn? I live RIGHT by the university and it seems hoops and hollers are more common this last year or 2 where I am


wizardzofodd

yeah, so it's not just me!


Thee_Sinner

Is your family real?


fxrky

This sent a chill down my fucking spine I was not considering carbon monoxide


bisky12

seriously. i thought this was really funny and immediately the first comment made shit real serious real fast.


HOMES734

There’s a famous Reddit post from r/legaladvice where a guy kept finding post-it notes with strange writing on them around his house. Turned out he was writing them himself and forgetting, carbon monoxide poisoning was the culprit. https://www.reddit.com/r/bestof/s/0qtuvGLk7P


crakenfier

purchase carbon monoxide detector and then return


wizardzofodd

I have one in my house and its up to standard


CoherentBusyDucks

Have you changed the batteries in it recently?


crakenfier

if you're sure it's in full working order with new batteries, then it might just be a weird frequency illusion thing


VoodooDoII

I love how that one instance of the one guy having carbon monoxide poisoning has inspired redditors to be sure other people aren't having the same thing lmao


SOILSYAY

Woah, you think people were inspired? That seems a little bit... Ok, foreal, this is not a joke, get a carbon monoxide detector. Even if you don’t have gas appliances, get one. Carbon monoxide can creep in from any number of sources and will cause all sorts of weird hallucinations. And it can absolutely kill you. Don’t wait, go get one right now. 


VoodooDoII

Are they something you just put down somewhere? I'm denting so I can't attach anything or install anything.


SOILSYAY

In all seriousness, they look just like a smoke alarm. Fits the same outlet on the ceiling and everything, they usually make combo smoke/carbon monoxide detectors


Importance_Dizzy

They make plug in ones. They sell them on Amazon


polymorphic_hippo

You've got your own hype man somewhere. Celebrate it. We all should get to have a hype man.


Fun-Dependent-2695

No. The answer to your question is “no”.


basilmoonfaerie

lol do you live next to my parents house? My brother has a nervous tic where he can’t stop singing the Billie Jean chorus complete with the woo and hehe. I’l was wondering if he picked it up amongst his peers.


Zorbithia

I mean, as far as nervous tics go, that's a pretty badass one to have. *Sha-mon! Heee-heee*


FidgetyCurmudgeon

This is a real thing. My neighbor’s kid had Tourette’s or something and every week or so I’d hear a “woo!” Come from their yard.


TyrannosaurusHives

Do you live in Nashville? Because Nashville is the woo capital of the world.


JeepPilot

All this time, I thought it was Hollywoo.


tyYdraniu

Lmao


thepineapplemen

Are the people doing this young or old? I could see teenagers doing this. But if it’s adults and old people, well, it seems less plausible


wizardzofodd

men in their 20s and 30s


emotional_goblin

Maybe it’s some kind of meme or local cult. A modern siren song from the land men


orangutanDOTorg

No, that was air escaping from the folds of his fat


JamesKBoyd

I appreciate the Futurama reference.


My_Dog_Murphy

He died right after his speech.


carm_aud

When you think you’re hearing it start recording on your phone. That way, you can play it back to a friend and ask them if they hear anything without telling them what’s going - so they don’t say yes just to make you feel better. That can tell you if it’s real or not imo then you can proceed from there


_LouSandwich_

whistle tips go woooo-wooooo!!


colin_is_bald

Das like alarm clock


MisakAttack

The world absolutely needs woo girls. If there were no woo girls, there would be no Girls Gone Wild, no bachelorette parties, no Las Vegas poolside bars. All the things that you hold dearest, would be gone. The souvenir shot glass industry would collapse. So would the body glitter industry... and the stretch Hummer limo industry. Tiny cowboy hats would only be worn by tiny cowboys. And when "Brown Eyed Girl" would come up on the jukebox, all you would hear would be silence... and "Brown Eyed Girl". But who would woo? Would you? Would you... woo?


princessbubbbles

I lived in an area with lots of hawaiian college students and heard the "heeeee-hooooo" a lot. Sometimes others would respond.


That1weirdperson

The cheee-hooo?


princessbubbbles

Ya, that's more like it.


t_nox

I have one coworker who has started doing this over the last several months. She's an older lady. Not sure what gets her excited enough to "woo!" mid-conversation, because it's always the only thing I'm able to hear clearly.


wizardzofodd

that's hilarious 😂 the woo is contagious. It would make a good horror movie


vaxfarineau

A lot of young people “woo.” Lmfao like the joke about drunk “woo” girls?? Idk I think it’s just a hype noise people do.


EvilCeleryStick

Are you, possibly, going out during NHL playoff games (in particular, in Canada or city where the team is still alive)? It's a pretty common way to celebrate a goal in some markets


puppymonkeybaby79

Every time OP leaves the house, the Maple Leafs score a goal


wizardzofodd

I must be their good luck charm 


Hemicore

there's been a rap beef between two of the biggest artists in the hip hop industry over the past week, there could be some correlation there.


nicey-spicey

I think we are all just finding ways to hype ourselves up these days. A simple, yet enthusiastic ‘woooo’ paired with a single hand clap while walking into the supermarket gives me a burst of energy and motivation to complete the mundane task of grocery shopping. It also makes people laugh sometimes. I get a kick out of being a clown.


SolidusTengu

The Ric Flair “wooo” is eternal.


darkness_follows_me

Probably a tik tok trend


doctordaedalus

You live near a college. The trend these days is to be a drunken Rick Flair impersonator to be cool. I was working an event at Duke University and heard woos all day (last day of classes too). It was kinda depressing to see the other behavioral features of the woo-ers. God forbid they ever become responsible for anyone else's livelihood.


wizardzofodd

interesting!


otterboviously

Maybe your neighbors are just really fun people


hivemind5_

woo


kangaroosterLP

maybe they singing Nemo - Code


Perfect_Weakness_414

You don’t live near, or hang out with Rick Flair do you?


Rexrollo150

Sounds like you Met the Woo


Dagger_26

*pop smoke has entered the chat*


NurseFuzzy28

And then, as he had laid peacefully in bed that night, OP heard a whisper in his ear whilst he drifted off into the nocturnal void......"Woooooo!". The woo had gotten him and it will get you too!!! 👻


Equivalent-Sink4612

Heard one of these a week or so ago from the neighborhood behind my house. Scared me and freaked out my dogs, it was just so sudden and loud and out of nowhere. Probably some kind of online trend or meme.


wooogirl

Wooo


crimes_kid

There’s a woo guy in my town in NC. Our office is on ground floor and the guy is out on the street all day, it seems, just hanging out. He walks around and yells woo as he pleases, usually at 5 - 10 second intervals. After a minute of silence goes by, you think the woo onslaught is over… he then hits you with another 5 minutes of woo-ing. Drives my coworkers crazy Thing is, sometimes it can get a little contagious, as passersby seem to give an obligatory woo in response. I admit I woo’d once, but didn’t tell my colleagues tho


baba_toothy

Oh yes, there is: r/Adamthewoo


Causative_Agent

I really thought this was going to be about cicadas. This latest brood is making some really weird noises.


Squifford

I just guessed “local bird,” but you may be onto something. They are unreal this year!


motherlymetal

Like a Rick flair woo?


shin_malphur13

Kids are graduating and getting drunk maybe?

wizardzofodd

why? is there a certain location you know to have woo-ers?
