Hooving Around

Hooving around is the elite art of being completely on bullshit.
To “hoov around” is to move through life with maximum noise, energy, and confidence while contributing absolutely nothing of value. Often involves yelling, pacing, hyping things up, creating chaos, or acting like something important is happening when, in reality, nothing productive is occurring whatsoever.

A person hooving around is somehow the loudest and most active person in the room while also accomplishing the least.

Hooking the Green 

A driving term for when someone wishing to turn left at an intersection quickly pulls through as soon as the light turns green, not allowing oncoming traffic going straight to clear first. This violates the right of way, is illegal and dangerous.

Sometimes it is used with the logic that it's better than you waiting for a whole line of cars to clear and potentially missing the light. Sometimes it is used because you're a douche.

The term is derived from golf; because a hook (as opposed to a slice) is when the ball takes a sudden undesirable left turn at the green.
I don't know, officer. I knew I had the right of way so I just went straight and t-boned the guy. I think he was Hooking the Green. When is that ambulance going to get here?
The act of being a hoon or driving recklessly, racing, doing burnouts etc.
