It originally came from Jonathan Swifts Gullivers Travels to describe a race of people who were savages who loved digging in mud, the term has become a form of abuse to describe a coarse person.
I found it funny for exactly the same reason when I first heard it, but I'm used to it now!

There's also the song Yahoo by Erasure:

Still trialling other writers, but will eventually go back to reading a bit of Blyton! Just too many books...
