Russian term or phrase: штырит
человек ударился головой и увидел привидение. привидение давай с ним общаться. человек комментирует: "во меня штырит-то".

обычно это наркоманский сленг, я знаю. но здесь наркотики рядом не валялись. его скорее "глючит". посоветуйте какой-нибудь удачный вариант перевода, пожалуйста.

спасибо!
