More stupid than crazy. It tends to mean more that the person is “not the sharpest tool in the box” or in plain terms “a bit thick”.

It is a pun, meaning a person is not too smart. Other examples:
24 cents shy of a quarter
his elevator doesn’t go to the top floor.
when they handed out brains, he thought they said rain and ran into the house.

It means that you are “one sandwich short of a picnic”. Not necessarily stupid, per se, but not the sharpest tack in the bunch….hey, I can keep answering this with other analogies…but hey, I wasn’t born yesterday….LOL!
