The Philosophy of POPEYE

[BeyondTheGrave]

I got Snoopy and also scored higher than 99% on friendliness. You got be kidding I hate people 

[RCMerchant]

I gotta Sponge Bob. I WANTED a POPEYE,dammit! (mumble mumble)...

Well personally I think I should have gotten a cool, laid back, good-looking cartoon character myself as that seems more like me (Pink Panther perhaps?).

Here you go...I took it again to see what would happen........A Garfield for you. 

[JaseSF]

Wow! That's perfect. 

[Viktorcrayon]

I got Garfield as well... Actually, i'm preparing lasagne as we speak. 

[Dennis]

I'm a Garfield too, but I really wanted the Roadrunner, this also gave me an 8% friendly rating, that's wrong, I like everbody, heck I even like Menard.

That has got to be the alcohol talking.

 OK,...now bear me out here....cus I been pondering this all day....
 I think Popeye is one of the greatest philosophers of all time...and here's why-
He's a basically happy go lucky ,live and let live kinda guy. Even Brutus(aka Blutto),who is constantly stabbing Popeye in the back and trying to mess with his women,is forgiven in the next cartoon -"Hey,Pal !". But when the sh!t hits the fan,and his freinds are in trouble,he's ready to kick ass.
   And his motto,"I yam what I yam,and that's what I yam!", is a good way to be at peace with yourself.
   (plus he eats his greens.)
OK!!! Here's what I brought up all this babbling nonsense up for- what cartoon charecter has an outlook on life that you admire?
I

I'm with you, RC, Popeye is a Yoda figure I've always admired and there is a Zen quality to Popeye, rather like a diamond in the rough. If you notice he looks out for his friends, doesn't start fights but finishes them, he's hard-working, honest, his served his country in WWII in two oceans, and yet he lives each day with a humble positive outlook that holds no illusions about ego: I yam what I yam. He's a master of life.

Shame about those tumors in his arms though:
