Toward the climax of this "Sailor Man" episode . . .
cricket304 August 2018
Warning: Spoilers
. . . the Evil Bullfighter "El Diablo" (obviously a double oxymoron) begins using "Popeye's" main squeeze--the not-so-bright "Olive"--as his make-shift cape, since she is wearing a red dress. (Fickle Olive has been drooling passion fruit juice and going totally Gaga over the brutal animal abuser this entire afternoon, so most right-thinking guys would simply kiss such a inconstant floozy goodbye, and move on to a more-rounded fish in the vast sea of romantic options.) However, Popeye being Popeye downs some green leafy vegetables from a projectile-vomiting can so that the scrawny tar can address El Diablo up-close-and-personal. However, if BULLFIGHTER BULLY were being tweaked and updated for 21st Century viewers, surely it would be better to show Popeye packing a plastic AR-15 military-style assault rifle fresh off his 3D printer, with which he could easily pick off the bovine torturer from the comfort of his arena seat (with none being the wiser). Invisible to metal detectors and quick to put together in the privacy of a men's room stall, this anonymous firearm (untraceable due to the absence of any serial number) could be left at the scene, with the chivalrous tar able to simply print out another similar weapon to have on hand the next time someone misused his girl. Such an improvement to BULLFIGHTER BULLY (and the other 219 episodes in this series) would solve the frequent "goof" of the puny Popeye implausibly being able to open a can of vegetables with his bare hands BEFORE consuming performance-enhancing leafy green stuff. Therefore, in honor of BULLFIGHTER BULLY, please support your local chapter of BANGS (Broke Americans Need Gun Stamps).

This picture implies that Popeye can fashion steaks . . .

. . . with his bare hands. Even IF this were possible, would it be sanitary? Have YOU ever seen this hard-living sailor wash his hands during ANY of his first four or five hundred episodes? I do not recall ever seeing him do so. Even if he cannot find time to hum "Happy Birthday to You" all the way through twice while suds-sing his digits, the least he could do is rub them together with a liberal dose of hand sanitizer from time to time. Would YOU really eat one of the steaks carved up by Popeye's greasy grappling hooks during BULLFIGHTER BULLY?! It stands to reason that a prudent diner would turn up their nose at such a supper.
