What does LOOPY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
informalBritish
Silly, eccentric, or slightly mad in a way that seems comic rather than serious.
Loopy describes behaviour, ideas, or plans that strike other people as ridiculous or not quite sane, though usually in a mild, non-threatening way. The word can be aimed at a person, as in a loopy uncle, or at a scheme that sounds too far-fetched to work. It began as British slang and later attached itself loosely to the literal picture of a loop, as if someone's thinking had gone round in circles.
