    I can only imagine the following panel of Popeye crushing a can of spinach open and then the next panel after that is an ambulance parked in front of their house, along with a police car.

        Well, dang!

        A lot of the old Popeye hasn’t aged too well for me, often being on the repetitive and dull side, but this sequence is hilarious, sharp, and has aged really well IMO. So… we’re looking at a date of… Dec 19th, 1937, is it?

            “Disgustipated” was coined by E.C. Segar in his syndicated comic strip Popeye. Earliest known use was 1938.

            I only knew it as a Tool song. Neat.
