That's a very difficult question for me to answer as I work in the mental health field. There are so many to choose from. But I don't want this to sound like I am making fun of anyone as they are ill and cannot help themselves. Still, it can be entertaining.
One gentleman comes to mind who was always fixated on words that started with the same letter, or categories of words such as brand names of candies. For instance, he would say his name, for example - John Jones. Then he would say, "Also known as, John Jay, aka John Jay Jones, aka John Jacob Astor..." etc. Or he would rant about candy companies trying to make money, "Like Good n' Plenty, and Mike and Ike, and Juicy Fruit, and Baby Ruth, and....."
Another lady comes to mind; a very young woman with very wild ideas about being the next president of the U.S. and offering me the post of Secret Service head, which I graciously declined. Then she offered me Secretary of State, which I accepted, which sent her into song....she jumped up and started singing "God Bless America" followed by "Take Me Out to the Ballgame."
