hootiedoom 

1)n. The sense of dread one gets when walking at night and hearing a Owl's call.
2)n. Uncomfortable feeling one can have due to unsettling night sounds.
I was going to walk to the parking lot to get my car but the rustling in the bushes gave me a bad case of hootiedoom and I had my friend drive me instead.

Hooptedoodle 

A chapter out of Steinbeck's Sweet Thursday. Also a word for nonsense used in upper English undergrad courses.
You are full of hooptedoodle, fool.

Hooptie finds it's origins dating back to the mid 1950's. The original, corrupted phrase is 'Coupe D', referring to a Cadillac Coupe deVille. Over time, Coupe D was rolled together into hooptie. Used to describe everything from "any old car" (thank Shaq for that) or more specifically a large domestic sedan. Popularized by Sir Mix-a-lot, the word moved from a mere description to a slur. Oddly enough, the word can have a variety of meanings, depending on the context, ranging from pride of ownership to an outright insult.
"Man, check out this new hooptie I picked up. $500 and the dash is still perfect!"

"Dammit! my (insert cool car here) is in the shop. Guess I'll mob the hooptie to work."

"Well, it might be a hooptie, but hey, it's got it's own class of demolition derby."
