Mr. Whipple

At work today I got an application for a student with the last name of Whipple. I mentioned to a student who was in my office at the time that this student was from her old school. She asked who it was and I told her, adding, "Did he get teased all the time for his name? Was he always asked if he squeezed the Charmin?" She looked at me in complete confusion. So I asked a nearby teacher's assistant if he remembered the Mr. Whipple commercials. More blank looks. I then asked a teacher, albeit a young one. No recognition. Dang. Feeling old. Those commercials seem like they were on just yesterday.
