So who is Popeye? Why is he such an icon? How has he managed to stay out of anger management for so long? Questions like these are at the core of Popeye lore. Who is Popeye? He is a man. A sailor man. And he is us. In this post from 2010, we find out just who we are.

He is retired military yet still wears the uniform.
He has a short conservative haircut.
He eats his vegetables.
He resists change.
He is a one-woman man.
He stands up for traditional values.
He takes care of his father.
Even his tattoo is a sailor’s classic, an anchor.
The only thing that would make Popeye even more an establishment figure is if he beat up a hippie.
Ladies and Gentlemen, from 1959, here is Popeye beating up a hippie.
