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

[-] cloudy1999@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

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

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

[-] DickFiasco@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

I was really hoping I'd find this here.

[-] db2@sopuli.xyz 18 points 2 years ago

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

[-] Neve8028@lemm.ee 29 points 2 years ago

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

[-] db2@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] Neve8028@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Woah chill lmao

[-] electriccars@startrek.website 7 points 2 years ago

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

[-] db2@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] elzapp@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago

Always know where your towel is

[-] MajinBlayze@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Be the kind of frood who knows where their towel is

Yet somehow the hotel towels are several times better at actually drying than my thick luxurious towels at home

[-] elscallr@kbin.social 8 points 2 years ago

Are you using fabric softener? That makes your towel less absorbent. If you're using detergent with built in softener it'll do the same.

Wash your towels with a cup of vinegar to remove the softener.

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

Should I shower with vinegar and then use my crappy home towel?

[-] veroxii@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Sure. Why not?

[-] uphillbothways@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

And/or borax in the machine with the soap. Helps a lot.

[-] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

Don't use softener

[-] Oka@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 years ago

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

Fuck that, beach towel ftw

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 3 points 2 years ago

Fuck that, aircraft detailer.

[-] legopika 2 points 2 years ago

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

[-] rDrDr@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

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

[-] uphillbothways@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years 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.

[-] Reverendender@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

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

[-] FollyDolly@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

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?

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.

[-] Ryan213@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Same with toilet paper ply.

[-] theforkofdamocles@beehaw.org 5 points 2 years 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.

[-] enki@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] veroxii@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Nice hotels have a pillow menu.

Also the idea of a used pillow

[-] DagingAnalog@lemmy.my.id 4 points 2 years ago

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

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 years ago

All the stale cum

[-] BigPapaE@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Opposite for me haha. Some of those hotel towels put in work

[-] Imgonnatrythis@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

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

[-] callyral@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

I think you're supposed to bring your towel

[-] argv_minus_one@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

You and your hotel both use books as towels?

[-] robocall@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

This is how I feel about pillows
