wackadoo
Off their rocker
Wackadoo describes someone or something crazy, eccentric, or absurdly off-kilter: My uncle's a total wackadoo—he thinks the government is reading his dreams.
As a noun, it refers to such a person directly: Some wackadoo was shouting conspiracy theories on the corner.
The word is playful rather than clinical, suggesting harmless oddity more than genuine mental illness.
