I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today

"I'd like you to lend me some money"

Etymology is from the cartoon "Popeye", where the character Wimpy would frequently utter this phrase. He was a glutton, and would consume burgers at a ferocious rate but could rarely pay for his habit.

The phrase implies the underlying feeling that the person will unlikely actually pay for the hamburger (or whatever) on Tuesday (or ever, for that matter.

I told my bank that I'd gladly 'pay them tuesday for a hamburger today' to buy that new sportscar, but they wouldn't approve me.

I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today

From Popeye cartoons. Line often uttered by Popeye's portly friend Wimpy. Of course, "Tuesday" would never come, and so Wimpy constantly secured himself a free lunch. Thus the line is used to jokingly indicate that one would like to "borrow" something without any real intention of ever paying you back.

At the movies:

Bob: Aw man, I forgot my wallet! Hey Joe, I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a movie ticket today...?

Joe: Yeah whatever...I'll buy your sorry ass another movie ticket just shut up.

Is it just me, or does the music today suck ass?

I don’t know why. But I really think the new music that’s being released today sucks ass. I have a very big discography and I’m always listening to good music especially around the late 1970s and early 1980s era. I wasn’t even born then. But I always have a lack of music that’s been released in the 2000s. Especially the 2010s and 2020s. Music these days is so bad it’s absurd. I thought music was horrible back in 2004, but it ain’t nearly as shitty as today’s honk of shit. Music from 2004 actually sounds good in comparison to what they’re playing today. And I was only 13 back then. It’s a disgrace, I honestly think the new music dumbs you down, I can feel my IQ dropping when I listen to it...

Probably had something to do with Bill Clinton signing something in 1996 or something. That allowed radio stations in America to buy as much stations in a market that they could, so all the big corporations bought out all the media and destroyed the music industry. Anything that’s been released since 1996 basically has been crappier than the music that came before, if you ask me.
