How do you know?

I don't get that impression when he eats it.

because he's a freaking sailor

The best spinach he can get comes in cans. Bald pipe smoking military men who enjoy eating spinach don't exist.

Thats what i thought.

If was Popeye, I'd eat it all the time.

Its cheap, and it makes you STRONG ALL THE TIME

he does eat it all the time

that's why he's strong generally. But he has to eat it to get that extra boost.

Because he is scared of the strength it gives him

Like the Hulk. He is really a man battling his emotions rather than the bad guys.

Thats pretty sad dude :[

I never really thought of Popeye in that way.

Yeah I suffer from the same sort of problems.

Except instead of spinach, its steroids. They make me angry and my balls retreat into my body.

i'm awaiting the new popeye film...

directed by ang lee.

it's apparently more "personal".

I heard that..

it uses the same amount of fake tears that Quentin Tarantino used in fake blood for Kill Bill vol 1&2. And that's just for the character of Popeye.
It's also 13 hours long.

'harrowing' 36 times.

because

it gives him odd side affects

twitchy eyes
paralized onthe right side of his face
giant growths at the bottom of his arms

This isn't the biggest question about Popeye

The biggest question is what the FUCK is that weird thing that Olive hangs around with in the cartoons.

Massive thing that speaks like "woorp worp weerp woorp"

FUCKED UP.

also

the spinach gives him strength, yeah?

now i'm no personal fitness trainer but if you can pop a can of spinach open in one clench of your hand then i think your strong enough.

let alone using a 'pipe' to enhance your 'hit'
