hooping

Causing a hoopla or a scene or being liable to do so on account of being in a state not conducive toward maintaining standard decorum and being in the presence of a relatively sizable audience.

When your head is spinning. Going around in circles mentally or physically. Being over excited, hyperactive or erratic. Typically indicates some loss of self control or coordination. Similar to hopping mad but not quite as intense. Unable to keep still and prancing/dancing around.

When someone says they are hooping it is usually to indicate that they should lower then expectations and not necessarily assume the person's superfluous movements or actions are the result of intent. This may describe a state with partial similarities to desperately needing to pee. See the urinal dance.

This is a little like saying you a tipsy, wasted, baked, drunk, buzzing or woozy except more toward being in more of an alert state than a sleepy inattentive state. It would tend to imply being loopy, dizzy, frantic, jittery, fidgety, etc. May suggest being distracted and perhaps panic. In some degree of disarray. Unable to entirely handle a situation or not being in a suitable state to fully conduct yourself accordingly.

Typically implies a state in response to having taken drugs and/or having received a shock.

HOOP

Acronym for Highly Opinionated Older Person. A HOOP needs little provocation to tell you all about their life and the things that bother them about it. No matter what it is, they have a very specific position on it and will expound on this in paragraphs. They will sometimes ask you for advice on something and then proceed to tell you why your advice is invalid. It often seems as if their existence is based on a steady flow of complaints.
That guy talked my ears off about all his family members and what was wrong with each and every one of them, down to their political positions. Total HOOP moment.

hooped

As in the colloquial usage of "hooped it". The act of balancing a volleyball, football or other inflatable object under ones buttocks while in a swimming pool.

Although giving the appearance and sensation of floating, the proponent runs the risk of opening his (or her) anus and "ingesting" the ball (or other object) into the colonic tract. Thus rendering the protagonist a "permanent floater" having hooped the ball.
Freakboy: "Dude, where's the damn volleyball? I wanna get on with the game!"

Hoopy-boy: "Man, I was floating on it and now it's gone. I think I hooped it!"
