screw-loose
"Screw-loose" is an informal phrase often used to describe someone as eccentric, odd, mentally unstable or unconventional. It is a metaphorical expression, implying that something is not working properly in a person's mind, just as a machine might not function well with a loose screw. It is however, used in a somewhat humorous or light-hearted context rather than a serious accusation of mental illness.
