Maddie

‘I don’t mean,’ […] ‘that you have been non compos, and were locked up, you know; but the information I desire to elicit is whether you have been among the maddies over the water.’ […] my visitor cut me short in a somewhat unceremonious manner by assuring me that until I had seen the maddies I was really incompetent to dilate upon the theme.

[T]hey put me in security with bars on the windows—where they put the real maddies and the ‘bad’ patients […] I looked out on a courtyard where all the maddies and morons walked about tearing off their clothes and eating their own shit […]

[W]hen we children had occasion to pass their gateway we would run, and tell each other that the maddies had come to catch us.

At a track day there are just so many factors in your favour, that serious fanging on the public road just has to be for the maddies.

Politicians have sometimes been divided into the "maddies" and the "baddies". The ["]maddies" being the ideologically motivated and the "baddies" being the self seekers. History seems to indicate that in temrs^([sic]) of causing human misery, the "maddies" are ahead thus far.

Let the maddies kill each other off - only keep it local and don't export it to other countries.
