haha! I've always wanted to say it when people take Charmin off of the shelf. Not that I work at a grocery store....I just wanted to play Mr Whipple and say it.

Mr. Whipple was no better than the sneaky Charmin squeezers he would reprimand. He also had a fetish to squeeze toilet paper. Mr. Whipple should have been whipped for such blatant acts of vandalism causing untold misery to unsuspecting shoppers.
Squeezing the Charmin (or any other brand of toilet tissue) compresses the roll which can damage the inner cardboard tube causing it to kink and somewhat flatten. Squeeze damage isn't always noticable on the store's shelf. It's when the unsuspecting buyer gets home and attempts to install it on the toilet paper holder that the full extent of the damage is revealed.
Sure, sometimes tube damage is noticable at the ends of the roll. But damage to the center of the tube can remain hidden from view - until you try sliding it on to the holder. When installing a damaged roll on the dispenser, the frustrated victim often finds him/herself desparately struggling, urgently trying to restore the shape of the interior cardboard.
More often than not, this moment of difficulty often occurs at the most inconvenient time when nature calls but must be delayed in order to remedy the problem. In the meantime, the urge grows increasingly stronger as precious moments are wasted by fumbling with the damaged roll. It's enough to make you shudder to think what might happen if too much time passes by, and even worse when you're comfortably reclined on the porcelain throne and suddenly discover you need a new roll!
SO PLEASE, FOR THE SAKE OF THE CHILDREN AND TRUSTING SHOPPERS...
...DON'T SQUEEZE THE CHARMIN!
