* Tsubame is prone to taking in nonsensical memes and references when she gets emotional in ''Manga/KaguyaSamaLoveIsWar''. Onodera describes it to Ishigami (who is hopelessly out of date on slang as it is) as needing to feel what she's saying rather than actually understanding it.

* Delirium in ''ComicBook/TheSandman1989'' tends to do this occasionally -- [[JustifiedTrope which makes sense]], since she's basically the personification of ''being'' a Cloudcuckoolander.

* In ''Literature/LeiaPrincessOfAlderaan'', Leia's quirky Luna Lovegood-esque friend Amilyn Holdo tends to speak in riddles and [[TalksLikeASimile strange metaphors]], such as comparing a double agent to a muffin whose two sides are covered with cream (a muffin always falls the cream side down, so if both sides are creamed, the muffin would just levitate; in the same way, a double agent would always have the upper hand regardless of which side wins). Another example is when Leia tells Amilyn that they need to make a detour in order to make their starship's course harder to track for the Imperials, and Holdo says "Mirrors bend light" in agreement.
