1. Getting a sudden urge to do something jovial and maybe slightly mischievous.
2. To find something whimsical or to itch the scratch only the chaos of the universe can satisfy.
I got the whims earlier after I saw this dope mural of a dog sprinting full speed and ended up racing go karts for 2 hours.
Yea.. insert name has a really bad case of the whims, our last 4 movie nights were picked from random movie generator.

Not a person, but a phenomenon. A whim is a public schoolboy with bleached hair. He doesn't follow orthodox slang trails. He chooses to forge his own. Such as spafe, westlife, and uber vince-head.
The Whim drives a 1.1 litre peugeot 106, and has a unique dance technique known only as "The Whim-Bop". Nicknames of The Whim, include the ridiculous: Peter, Whimothy and Whim-Bob.
The Whim is currently the only human to be signposted, and even has a supermarket named after him (in Newquay).
