What does WIGGY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
informalNorth American
Odd, eccentric or slightly crazy in manner or appearance.
Something or someone called wiggy strikes other people as strange or unhinged, often in a way that is entertaining rather than alarming, and the adjective is built on the same idea behind the phrase to wig out, meaning to lose composure. Wiggy can describe a person's behaviour, an outlandish outfit, or a plan that seems slightly unbalanced. The word is casual slang rather than a term used in careful description.
