    You,re dating yourself if you remember these commercials. I think Mae Questel took over after the Mr. Whipple actor passed away. She played Aunt Bluebell or something but was best known as the voice of Olive Oyl for a gajillian years.

    Is this the toilet paper that was missing from Homework Helper’s cubicle in “One Big Happy”?

    He didn’t just want a squeeze. He wanted to go for a roll.

    For those of you who are less than 40 years old, there was a commercial for Charmin bathroom tissue that started with two older ladies squeezing packages of the tissue and obviously enjoying it (in those days the sexual innuendo was absent) and being confronted by the store manager, Mr. Whipple; only to have the tables turned when he started absently squeezing the packages himself.

    The basic idea of this cartoon was actually used in one of the variants of the commercial, except that it was played out with police officers in the store instead of a courtroom.

    I think the claimant should have to submit a tissue sample.

    The complaint states that “the defendant squeezed her absorbent pillows, then tried two ply her for more.”

    Also, Mr. Whipple’s teenager assistant was a very young Adam Savage, of Mythbusters.

    Squeezing the soft rolls is fun. One of the perks of being human. I can’t blame him.

    They put a Bounty on his head. He Sparkled on the stand. He was so Charmin’ on the stand he hopes to get off Scott free. A Generic defense won’t hold up to the butt wiping he’s gonna get. He’ll need 2-ply Cottonelle shorts to sit downagain.

    I remember those Charmain commercials like it was yesterday. While visiting the Wisconsin Dells the summer of “71, we walked up the street and came across a 4 ft. block of cheese. Sitting atop the cheese was a package of Charmain toiliet paper. A sign nearby read: ’Please squeeze the Charmain, not the cheese.” It’s a great memory.
