词汇 | bugs bunny |
词源 | Bugs Bunny. Bugs’s creator and voice, the late Mel Blanc, al- ways insisted that the “pesky wabbit” (as Elmer Fudd called him) had his (Blanc’s) New York accent, combining Brooklyn and Bronx elements, as did Popeye, Betty Boop, and the Dead End Kids, among many others. Bugs may have been so named because he acted bugs or crazy, but his name could honor gangster Bugsy Siegel, who certainly acted extremely bugsy if anyone dared call him Bugsy. See murder inc.; that’s all folks!; what’s up doc??; wiley e. coyote. |
