Every weekend I hear people walking by on the street trying to hail a taxi, slurring "Fuck off" to each other, honking their horns, and whooping. Whooping is the most common. It's a shout like "Whoo!" or "Whoo-eee!" or some other variation.
I've never–even in my most drunken nights–resorted to whooping. Anyone here whoop? What's the motivation? Is it an American thing?

I usually yell "TAINT!" when I've had a few. Whooping, not so much. After thinking about it for less than a minute I've decided that I think it's a redneck/fratboy thing.

People tend to shout 'OI-OI!' outside my house late at night. maybe it is a localised phenomena.

I tend to yell "hotttt pocketsss!!" when I am drunk, and even moreso when I am not.
I actually made about 4 songs about hot pockets, including one a friend used for her animation project (she made a hot pockets commercial)
i dont understand my own fascination with them.

I dunno, I don't think a night has been successful if there wasn't any wooing.
My crew's techno is rowdy, and is best enjoyed rowdy, ie loud, drunk and belligerant.
We have a saying about the thinky, downtempo, ambient, circuitbent/noisescape "artsy" shows around town - they're "more shush than woo". That pretty much sums up why we don't go to many of those shows... if you and your friends can't raise your beer and yell your appreciation for the music, what's the point of going out? We call the people that attend those kinds of shows "shushers".
Man, you would not believe the dirty looks I got at Mutek when I let out a big ironic "whooooooOOO!" during a particularly dry set "performed" by a guy with two palm pilots. Mutek is totally more shush than woo.
