should be poofed out of existence

This means something very specific in the UK.

You can't just drop that and then not explain....

Pretty sure they’re referring to “poof” which is a derogatory term for a gay man in British vernacular. In any case, the context in which it was used clearly wasn’t intended as the derogatory term, rather to mean “suddenly”.
