Does anyone remember that classic episode of Friends where Joey and Chandler list Monica's towel categories?
Now, most of us aren't as obsessed with our towels as Monica was, but a recent Twitter thread asked the question, "Just how many towels is a person supposed to own exactly?"
This simple question generated some pretty heated answers. Take a look at some of the responses.
Twitter user @Advil posted this question to the internet after getting into a dispute with his girlfriend. I've never asked this question myself, and now I'm also wondering what the answer is.
Like Monica, this Twitter user believes in the power of towel categories. This definitely seems to be a step in the right direction.
Towels are useful, so it's always a good idea to stock up on them because you never know when you'll need a bunch at once.
Six or seven, eh? Okay, nothing wrong with this response but I just need an explanation why. How did they arrive at this number? Chance? Luck? I need to know!
Basically, it really depends on your needs. If your linen closet is bursting, then cut back on your towel collection. If you can never find a towel, it's probably time to buy some new ones.
Is there a correct amount of towels someone should own? What is that number? I feel like this debate has raised even more questions than answering them.
