maroon

A malapropism and favorite expression of Bugs Bunny, after outwitting Elmer Fudd. Usually uttered by Bugs this while walking away and wiping his hands in satisfaction. The joke of course is that Bugs mispronounces "moron."

Bugs: "What a maroon."

maroon

A fuckwit, elmore or jackweed. Doesn't rise to the level of moron because that is spelled correctly.

The maroons who ran Enron really elmored the company up.

maroon

Used by Bugs Bunny as a term or derision. Possibly in reference to the 1925 Pottsville Maroons-even though they had the best record in the NFL that year, they were so dumb that they encroached on the area of another team and forfeited the NFL championship.

To be as stupid as a Maroon.

Maroon

A cocky rugby league fan who supports Queensland in the state of Origin. Thinks they have the right to be smug (which the probably do) because they won 5 origins straight. Not to be confused with a wanker who has lived in New South Wales his whole life, and supports Queensland.

First Person: GO THE BLUES!
Second Person: Na no way mate, this is year of the mighty MAROONS

Maroon

This is a racial slur used to refer to black slaves abandoned("marooned") by slave ships on islands on the way to thier destination when they were found to be in some way inferior and not worthy of a good price at auction. It means, in effect," One who is deemed unworthy of even the lowliest of prices."

" I hired the guy to sweep up hair in the barber shop but he can't even do that! What a maroon!"
