I need some help with the high-tech lingo – is there some speed or directional difference between “whizzing by” or simply “buzzing by” ;?

It’s the “hurtling towards” that you got to watch for.

Scientifically speaking...buzzing by is an effect when you drink a six pack waiting to see it.

“Whizzing by” is the effect when you polish off the six pack before it gets here—and it passes by when you can’t hold it any long.
