I'm turning 42 next summer and have been thinking about hosting a Towel Party; this image is going to be very helpful.

A stranger on the Internet approves of this plan. Please provide updates. Will there be a Vogon poetry recital?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I think the physical and psychological distress that tend to result from Vogon poetry would be problematic for the celebrational mood I'm hoping to achieve, but there will definitely be gorgeous sandwiches crafted by the loving hands of an artisan of intergalactic renown.

I've never seen a recipe for Pan-Galactic Gargle Blasters that appealed to me, but I'm hoping to get that sorted as well.

That OP, he's a really hoopy frood who knows where his towel is.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I was really hoping I'd find this here.

Always know where your towel is

Be the kind of frood who knows where their towel is

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

A real hoopy!

Stay at a better hotel then. This is like shopping at Walmart and complaining about how many people in there smell bad.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Ah yes just "have more disposable income". Simple advice, thanks.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can go to a better place and pay less, but you go ahead and act superior since you clearly know what you're talking about and aren't just pulling shit out of your ass.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Woah chill lmao

If only my company allowed me to book my own hotels while traveling for work...

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 year ago

Oh, well then yours is probably the best solution then.

When you shop for towels, don't get a towel, get a "bath sheet". They are XL towels

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fuck that, beach towel ftw

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fuck that, aircraft detailer.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Don't forget to replace your soap with aircraft paint stripper to get extra clean.

Growing up, all the towels we had at home were stolen from hotels.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Growing up we never went to hotels or anywhere, really. Mother stole our towels from grandma, who got them free from the grocery store on rewards points in the 70's.

I have had to stay in a lot of hotels and the good the bad and the disgusting, it doesn't matter.

I am bringing my own fucking towel. You can say "stay at a nicer place" all you want. but those who can afford those places, are also those who can affod to be the sickest, most perverted fuckers out there and employees that give far less a fuck's worth of care.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Has anyone noticed hotels are also giving you less towels overall? Last hotel I stayed at I got one bathtowel, one hand towel and a washcloth. Guess If I spill anything I'll just clean it with the bath mat?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What else should they give you by default? Genuinely asking.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

A spilltowel, you lousy poorperson.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Usually it's at two of everything. Especially now that housekeeping only stops by once per stay these days.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Two stories:

The last time I stayed in a Motel 6, maybe 35 years ago, the towel was practically tissue paper.

I once delivered a box of towels to the Senate Club at the Forum (back when the Lakers played there), and wow did I ever see how the wealthy live! Those were the biggest, most luxurious towels I’ve ever felt.

This, but my pillow. Since I learned how amazing latex foam pillows are, I've had a hard time sleeping on regular pillows ever since.

[–] altima_neo 2 points 1 year ago

Also the idea of a used pillow

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I would love to know which god-tier cushiony towels you are using at home!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why are they heavy tho? I have a much thicker towel at home but it's much lighter than hotel's.

[–] altima_neo 5 points 1 year ago

All the stale cum

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I think you're supposed to bring your towel

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

TF you mean sometimes? Haven't you read the manual?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You and your hotel both use books as towels?
