Why does this remind me of the famous Whimpy quote:
"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."
