ACTUALLY, the "correctee" is closer to the mark here.  I'm
not sure which cartoon (if any) the "correcter" is referring
to, but the original poster quotes "Bully for Bugs", a
bullfighting story, which I just saw on videotape.  In one
scene, Bugs says (regarding the bull), "What a gulli-bull!
What a nin-cow-poop!"  Then, in a subsequent scene, "What an
embezzle (as in imbecile)!  What an ultramaroon!"  What
"ultramaroon" plays on is beyond me.  These are more
examples of the malapropisms the animators liked to put in
Bugs' mouth in some of the later cartoons.
