daffier
Increasingly off-kilter
Daffier is the comparative form of daffy, meaning sillier or more scatterbrained.
Someone acting daffier than usual is being goofier or more absurdly eccentric: She got daffier as the night went on.
The word carries affection rather than criticism—daffy people are endearingly foolish, not genuinely stupid.
