I emailed someone at work mentioning it's International Towel Day today (the 25th of May - see towelday.org) and got this response:
You need to be more specific.
BEACH, BATH , SPA , TEA , FACE, GUEST,
I dont want to be caught carrying the wrong towel around.
Of course the capitalised towel types made me think they should be acronymised as a way of celebrating this most silly of occasions.
SPA: Signal Passing Ambulance (you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal)
BEACH: Bugblatter? Eyes Are Covered - Hooray! (wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or to avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (a mindboggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you - daft as a brush, but very ravenous))
BATH: Beware A Toweled Hitchhiker
Probably a better word would mean something like 'respect'
It's 4a.m, I can't do any more.
