Have you read/seen/played the Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy? If yes, then you know that it mentions a towel many times.
I also noticed that there many ways to use a towel. So I decided to start a forum game about it. Rules: Post a way to use towel. Simple? Yes, until we get to the 100. You cant post a same idea twice. You cant post a same idea said "in another way". I.E: I posted "You can dry yourself with towel", you cant post "You can dry your face with towel". If someone starts another page, he has to copy all the idea's on his post. Lets see if we can get 1000 ways to use towel! 1. You can dry youself with towel |
2. You can wrap yourself in a towel.
|
3. You can hit others with a towel.
|
4 You can use wet towels to cross a fiery hot sandy beach without having to do a ridiculous dance
|
5. You can put a towel on your sunlounger in order not to stick at it when it/you get warm.
|
6. You can soak it and wrap it around a bottle of water, lay the bundle in the sun, wait, then drink the now cool water.
|
7. You can roll a towel into a long tube, then tie the tube around the stomach of a cat and then laugh at what happens.
Hint: Cats use their whole body and stomach to balance (that's where the slinky cat-walk comes from) so when you stop the rythmic movement they just fall over and can't get up. This does NOT hurt the cat, but I don't recomend doing it over and over again, otherwise the cat WILL hurt you :) |
8. You can rub you skin with the towel if it's a terry towel and make old or sunburned skin peel. :sneaky:
|
Yuk!
9. You can lie another towel around you feet to catch the pieces of skin that float from your burnt shoulders, then rap the whole disgusting lot up and burn it. |
10(not 9!). You can sell it for couple of zorkmids
The next one is 11. |
11 You can use it as a major plot element in a book
|
12. You can distract your opponent by throwing a towel at his face. Trust me, it works! :ok:
|
13 You can use it to walk from the shower stall through the house without worrying that anyone gets too offended
|
14. You can use it to create very floppy origami.
|
15 You can collect all the failed origami attempts in it and get them unseen out of the way
|
16. You can use a towel to create a very skimpy toga for a college party.

17 You can use a towel to find 1000 reasons to use it.
|
18 You can gag your neighbour's dog

21. You can eat the towel after 30 long, desperate days without a single crumb in your mouth... however that would be your last meal :whistling:
|
22. You can put a towel behind your head and lay down before you do an interstellar space jump to keep from being sick (though when you wake up it will somehow be by your feet)

24. You can put a towel on your head and see if you have any luck trying to get an airliner ticket.
|
25. You can use a towel to flog the programmers at work as punishment for acting like spoilt artists and prima donna's.
25.5 You can then use it to plug your ears as their whining increases to an ear-drum shattering volume. |
26. You can wrap your computer into a towel, in order to hide it, if the bailiff might visit you.
|
27. You use it to cover your head to form a sort of "steam tent" as you inhale fumes from camphor in a bowl of boiling water, when you have a cold.
