Elmer Fudd was that mighty hunter, all dressed up in hunting gear and toting his rifle, off to get that wascally wabbit. And of course Bugs consistently made a fool of him, calling him a Nimrod the whole time. So all us little kids who were Biblically illiterate at the time had no idea that Nimrod was a mighty hunter and so thought Nimrod meant doofus. And thus the change in definition occurred, fueled by pop culture.Royhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01648670975466222140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-188724087075739853.post-63020552277013996462014-04-16T15:26:42.188-04:002014-04-16T15:26:42.188-04:00Yes I feel really better that I know now the word ...Yes I feel really better that I know now the word how I feel sometimes lolGloria Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055543111865966546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-188724087075739853.post-86416164158247514192014-04-16T15:10:53.741-04:002014-04-16T15:10:53.741-04:00I nicknamed a tech at my pharmacy "Nimrod&quo...I nicknamed a tech at my pharmacy "Nimrod".
