There was a big group of teens who strolled in and a lot of kids without bags or stuff who just swam in workout shorts- it looked like they had come spontaneously from a sports practice or someone’s house.

I left my towel on a railing to dry while DH and I ate our dinner nearby and when we gathered out things, my towel was gone and the teens were too.

We looked in both locker rooms, the lost and found, and asked the guards in case they had rounded up things early to clean before close, but it was nowhere to be found. It was a sentimental towel (I know that sounds dumb) and also just the right size to wrap easily but not so big and thick that it is hard to wash or dry. I’ve used it at open water swim races, my DD’s early swim lessons, etc. and no one has ever been tempted to grab it off the hundreds of chairs, chaises, railings and fences that it’s been on.

Vent over. Teach your idiot boys with low executive functioning skills to pack a towel or air dry, and if you find a towel at your house that isn’t yours, maybe question how it got there.


Too bad the boys did not steal your personality and spare us from your stupidity.

It is direct attack on boys. Spare us your righteous indignation. Sorry woke is gone unless it works for you, right?


I’m no detective, but if only boys were at the pool, and the towel went missing, then boys were involved in its disappearance, right? Barring a visit from a quick and very strong crow?


Maybe it was that one PP who said if she saw a random towel left behind she would throw it in the trash?


But it was gone before OP left? Who throws someone’s towel into the trash while people are still there and before it’s closed for the night?


That one PP.

Yup, only moms launder!


If my DH found a random towel in the house and he didn’t recognize it, he would leave it in that exact spot and/or step over it for years until someone else dealt with it.


Haha, isn’t that the truth?

I wonder if the outrage would have come out from all these PPs if it was a group of girls in the story. Seems to have struck a nerve with a lot of #boymoms of#boyswillbeboys.

Pretty ironic given all the other threads this week about boys making dumb choices at beach week, boys going to court for unsafe driving, etc, etc.


Just the idea that people find it *so incredibly unlikely* to have something stolen from a public place by anyone of any gender has given me a good chuckle

It’s just another desperate post of a cat lady clinging to the wall trying to further an attack against boys.

Swim team kids do generally lay their towels over the railing at the pool, and yes they lose their towels all the time 🤣but I’ve never seen adults do this. Why didn’t you just put it on the chaise?

This is a lesson to you to keep track of your stuff. It’s a wild wild world out there!

Linus has listed the towel on E-Bay. It comes with a coupon for a free day in the rubber room.
