Mr. Whipple VS Charmin Bears

Dick Wilson, the character actor who played Mr. Whipple the store manager that implored the world to not squeeze the Charmin died today at the ripe age of 91. Which brings me to those awful Charmin Bears. Normally I applaud cartoon characters over real-life human ones to shill the American dream, but in this case I vote for Whipple hands down. Rest in peace Mr. Wilson.
