Ugh... I forgot to pack a towel

  Just because:

  A towel, [The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy] says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have.

  Partly it has great practical value. You can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapors; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a miniraft down the slow heavy River Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (such a mind-boggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can’t see it, it can’t see you); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.

  Alternative pro tip: forget to go to the gym, have towel

  Do you usually just walk back from the shower to your locker dripping water everywhere?

    My gym has separate little shower/changing rooms

  Make sure you remember your lock combo before locking your belongings up when you take a shower. I came back to my locker and couldn’t open it once. No phone, no glasses, just flip flops in a towel. Not a fun experience. Thankfully I remembered the code before too embarrassingly long.

    If the Internet has taught me anything, it’s that a Masterlock can be easily opened with another Masterlock.

  I’ve forgotton a towel when I went swimming before. Ended up using my shirt as a towel and dressing in just my sweater.

    Yeah I ended up using gym t shirt that was fairly clean since I didn’t do cardio. It all worked out in the end

  This is a Facebook thought imo

    I don’t have Facebook though. And I was all wet. Seemed appropriate

    I don’t think 90% of the people who post on this comm have any idea how Showerthoughts works.

  I’ve done that before. It sucked cause it was also 14°F out. So I had to drive home in the cold while wet.

    Did you drive naked?

      No, but I did go in shorts and a t shirt. So I had to leave in those clothes too.
