Illustration purposes aside, I've interestingly never bought or taken aspirin in my life, and I'm middle aged. Aspirin seems to be a generational marker -- people under a certain age have likely never encountered aspirin. It's like the 3.5" floppy disk Save icon -- most people of the current generation know what it means but they've never seen the real thing.
