(J. Wellington) Wimpy loves to eat hamburgers, and is usually seen with one (e.g. in “Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor,” where he eats burgers almost the entire time) but is usually too cheap to pay for them. A recurring joke is Wimpy’s attempts to con other patrons of the diner into buying him his lunch. Wimpy often tries to outwit fellow patrons with his convoluted logic. His famous line, which was first introduced to the cartoons in the 1934 cartoon We Aim to Please, is “I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today”.
