Do you have a favourite towel? What is your best story about it?
While I'm not sure that I have any stories about towels, I do have very definite opinions about what makes a good towel... and it's not a new, fluffy one.
I'm firmly with Larry David when it comes to towels...
"Towels are better when they're washed over and over again, like a pair of jeans, they dry you a lot better."
Never has a truer word been spoken in jest.
Here are some songs about towels...
I bet they're nice, rough towels that dry you properly.
SLAVES - This Is You Throwing In The Towel
Mom Jeans - I Left My Towel At My Friend's House And Then They Moved, Pt. 1
Are you with me (and Larry) on the benefits of a nice rough towel? Or do you buy new towels every 6 months because you like them fluffy as heck but don't care whether you're actually dry or not?
Any other towel-related opinions and anecdotes will be gratefully received...
