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.
