Famous Studios Popeye the Sailor cartoon. This is one of many cartoons where Popeye is put in the role of being the victim of abuse from a pesky animal. In this cartoon, Popeye gets the crap beat out of him by a fly. This one is a remake of the Fleischer Popeye short "Flies Ain't Human", but the fly in this one is more of a bully and heckles Popeye for no good reason whatsoever. Perhaps this fly's cruel treatment of Popeye is the main reason why the entire human race has grown a severe hatred towards flies and other pesky insects. All Popeye wanted to do was take a nap without being disturbed.
