Somehow I doubt it.
The reference, for you culturally deprived European types, is to Bugs Bunny;
who used the word to describe anyone who was hopelessly out of contact with
reality -most likely springing from "marooned" as in someone who'd been
marooned on a desert island for an extended period- and whose opinions
were, therefore, somewhat more than suspect.

No no no...
Just a nicer (if there is such a thing) way of saying moron, that's all.

And Bugs told you this when?

Let's turn that around and ask, "Who told you Bugs meant it as you say?" My
mother told me what he meant when I watched it as a child. Your definition
is certainly plausable but I think I'll go with what I was told when I
watched the cartoons back in the day (late 50's, early 60's).
