J. Wellington Wimpy, or just Wimpy, is one of the characters in
the long-running comic strip Thimble Theater, and in the Popeye
cartoons based upon the strip.
Wimpy is Popeye's friend. In the cartoons he mainly plays the role
of the "straight man" to Popeye's outbursts and wild antics. Wimpy
is very intelligent, and well educated, but very lazy and
gluttonous. Wimpy is also something of a scam artist and
(especially in the newspaper cartoons) can be shockingly
underhanded at times.
Wimpy loves to eat hamburgers, and is usually seen with one, 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'd gladly
pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today".
