Today, my mom informed me that my entire family puts their dirty towels on the towel rack in the bathroom instead of the hamper. I've been using their dirty towels after showers for as long as I remember. FML

I don't follow your logic, kiddo. Doesn't everybody in your household have their own towel? Or... do you expect that everybody uses a towel only once, then places it in the hamper soaking wet, and then puts a new towel on the rack? Me, I use towels for a few days before they go in the laundry, unless they're really dirty. (It would be really expensive and take up a ton of space to have a set of towels for every day of the week.) Between uses, they sit on the rack to dry. When I was a kid, each had our own bath towel, and would do the same thing. If you leave wet towels in the hamper for a few days, they're going to get moldy and gross - that's why you let them dry out, first. You're not going to die from using the same towel as a blood relative.

Shouldn't you be clean after you shower??? Its like using a dish towel to dry your dishes after you clean them.

lets all swear and be cool!! crap shit **** ***** **** clit **** twat wanker your face

my family always does that so that we don't have to wash them constantly. I don't see what the big deal is you're all family and it's clean if they use it on their clean bodies. actually, I'm sort of pissed off right now. this made it and fml didn't? wow.

Haha. My family does that. Saves money. Besides, they use it to dry themselves AFTER they've cleaned up, no big deal.

i use towels 2-3x before i wash them. it's no big deal. you're clean when you dry off with them...

How do you not realise it's dirty? :S ...ydi for not figuring it out yourself.

I don't know if you know this, but by reusing towels, you reduce the amount of water used to clean them. Global warming is only getting worse, using a towel after someone else is not the worse thing that has happened. If you are as picky as I am about it though, I would suggest buying your own towel(s) and keeping them in your room until you are going to use them. That way, you don't have to share with someone else, and you're not running up the water bill. It would be a win win! I don't mean to sound rude, I just don't think you are f***ed, considering it never bothered you before. P.S just take comfort in the fact that they were clean when they used them, therefore it really wasn't so bad for you.

Op are you one of those people who cries when they don't get FIRST on an FML? Cause this type of drama makes me think you cry when you don't get the "toy" you wanted. You should marry the guy who bitched about getting clothing and a First Aid Kit for Christmas. Only because he can give you some disinfectant, for the obviously horrible radioactive towel you had to dry off with.
