1 have wheels in one's head
уст.; амер.≈ винтика в голове не хватает, не все домаSuch subtleties had no interest for these allknowing boys. When Jimmie persisted, they called him a "nut", a "poor cheese"; they told him that he was "cuckoo", that his "trolley was twisted"; they made whirling motions with their hands to indicate that he had "wheels in his head", they made flapping motions over him to signify that there were "bats in his belfry". (U. Sinclair, ‘Jimmie Higgins’, ch. XIX) — Такие тонкости не интересовали молодых американских всезнаек! А когда Джимми по-прежнему стоял на своем, они говорили, что он дурень, что он "ку-ку", что у него "мозги набекрень"; или многозначительно крутили пальцами у лба: у тебя, мол, "шарики за ролики зашли", махали руками у него над головой, дескать, "на твоей колокольне летучие мыши летают".
