I hate towel day, means we have to draw a bath. I'm the youngest so I get the really wet towel, witch its hard to dry off with a wet towel, you know, because I'm the last to use the towel. Dirty tub water sucks too.

1025.5.2011 11:41

Towel Day?

You know...sunscreen day is on the way...

1125.5.2011 11:57

1425.5.2011 12:25

Towels? OK

1525.5.2011 12:28

At first I was like WTF towel day???? And was proud that I was not as nerdy as I thought I was. I then wiki'ed TOWEL DAY...and thought "Wow that is pretty awesome and makes sense. I better grab a towel to carry around today." And the proudness slowly faded away.

1625.5.2011 12:34

Send me my towel A.D.

1725.5.2011 12:48

Phew. That headline scared me at first! I thought aD was claiming they were "Throwing in the towel" and it's nowhere near April 1st.

1825.5.2011 12:56

You can never have enough towels

Thought the same thing.

But I'd love a towel to boast this site. I tell people about it all the time and voila! they're hooked.

BTW......one can NEVER have too many towels........especially if you're rubbin' one out regularly. :)

I could always use a towel or two.

2425.5.2011 14:38

When you get out of the water you need to dry off right away to avoid catching a cold. That's why Towelie says, don't forget to bring a towel!

2525.5.2011 14:41
