Bob could buy a toopee for his bald head. - Stevenson0, 2007-07-20: 07:01:00

Toopee, or not toopee? - Kyoti, 2007-07-20: 10:47:00

It was the toopee bit that inspired the sentence about baldness. An alternative definition might be peer to peer smile sharing, if it's positive emotional energy. - petaj, 2007-07-21: 06:37:00
