That’s what my daughter tells me.

Is there a definition for ZIGGITY BOO?

Not that I could find. In one place it’s described as “scatterbrained”. It sounds like ZIGGITY BOO is worse than that.

Some examples from the rehab where my daughter is:

One woman has been taken to the ER by ambulance 4x in the last 2 days. She fakes a heart attack. She says she likes riding in ambulances.

That is an expensive hobby.

Another woman slid across the floor and fell after my daughter had just mopped it and told her not to walk on it.

My daughter says she just wanted attention. By breaking her neck?

Another one goes all around naked. She talks, sings, and argues with herself.

She thinks she’s in a nudist colony.

These are examples of being ZIGGITY BOO!

Is it a nicer term than calling someone crazy?

Have you ever heard of this term?
