But that's not a picture of him. Not sure why they would put someone else's picture with an article like that....

I'm sure dismissing anything snopes says, and believing everything Gateway Pundit and Newsmax says is perfectly mentally healthy. I'm not saying the4 Popeye creator  wasn't  influenced by the guy. I"m just saying that's not his picture. This is pretty basic research stuff Coach... Give it a try. Just for fun, pretend I posted that meme... You became curious about it because you grew up watching the cartoon. You do a little digging and ......... well, give it a shot.. just for fun.

Cartoon characters are usually based on amalgamations of several people cartoon producers have met.

Popeye was probably a combination of several maritime sailors.

Like the way Bugs Bunny was making fun of people in Brooklyn during the 1930's.

That's a baffling statement. No politics.... other than you have a pattern of imbecilic behavior underlined by your meme. The words are correct, but the picture is false. This is textbook 101 research. If you are unable, unwilling, incapable of a simple task like this, how in the world do you expect anyone to believe anything you post unless they are as warped as you are?

I’ve personally met Pops at the toon conventions and he is a stand up guy. He’s had a few strokes (and getting punched by that fat fuck Bluto hasn’t helped) and that’s why he talks kind of funny. Overall I like the guy. I’ve told him that when I destroy the earth with my Illudium Q36 - I’ll spare he and his lovely (hey he thinks so) bride.

Good cartoon, the other day i saw a dude who reminded me of Popeye, huge forearms but upper arms were not that big, it looked kinda silly. Idk what kind of labor work that dude did but it's a silly look imo

Been doing some googling.
Found some pictures of the supposed real Popeye:

Pretty sure the first one is a fake. What's up with that edema in his forearms? Terminal case of tennis elbow??

You sound like my older brother. Critical thought and reflection regarding various subjects do not matter. What matters is that you are always right. You would like him, he is into men. How tight are your glutes?

A so called adult starts a thread about a cartoon character being real. You call it "critical thought",  then launch into a homosexual themed diatribe so common among Getbig's  closet cases. Get a job.

If she got tit and ass implants. To sailors like Popeye and Bluto she was a princess. Being out at sea for months at a time will do that to you.

Several decades ago it was common to see old people with no teeth (that's like 75 % of Popeye's look )  throw a hat and pipe in which was common at the time as well and you have a trend

Well you came in at the right time it seems. CNN as far as I know hasn't commented on it. But the internet has a vast amount of knowledge at our fingertips. People like Coach, waste it on always going to websites that support their opinion. Others, use it to do fact checking. That's what I and a few others here do. Turns out Coach's meme is half right. For fun, I would like you to google and see if you can refute my post if you disagree. I look forward to reading your rebuttal

These guys actually have an entire popeye collection you can get Bruno or Olive as well they are automatic and reasonably priced 400$ the left side winding action is also available which is great as won't dig into your hand when worn on the left hand when pressing. Right side winding(typical default for watches) can dig into your hand not the best for lifting

These guys are also really cool for anyone who wants to learn more about mechanical watches. They send you the component parts and tools and instructions so you can assemble it yourself.

Is it easier or harder to assemble than a skateboard?
