the problem with decorative towels is that you can't bleach or 90°C wash them, when they get super stained from makeup or blood etc.. well, you can, but afterwards they cease to be your decorative towels 😄

I just leave the blood, going for that really haunted look.

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Given I've got Pokemon themed decorative towels, the blood really adds a certain feel to it.

I didn't think you were supposed to use the decorative towels?

Remember how people used to collect tiny spoons? This is like that. Now it's towels that say "Fuck off kid, mommy's getting plastered" Bonus points if you hang it on a shitty wooden ladder.

Ugh or the tiny decorative soaps shaped like roses that you can't use, they're for decoration only, but your mom got them as a wedding favor in the '80s so the soaps and the little wicker display basket they came in have accumulated a coating of dust that can't be removed unless you use water which rUiNs the sOaPs....

That and doilies. I really hate doilies.

Are you old enough to remember those Barbie dolls that old ladies used to crochet a dress for so you could stand Barbie up in a roll of toilet paper and the dress would get pulled down over it? And the toilet paper was light pink?

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes indeed! My grandmother had one, but I don't think it was Barbie specifically but a knockoff with dark hair. The doll had a blue dress and so she bought the blue toilet paper. I had completely forgotten about it!

My grandma had a padded pink vinyl toilet seat that matched the Barbie and the toilet paper. When you sat on it it slowly squished all the air out. It was an awful feeling.

I remember those too! Oh god I hated those.

Mine had a carpeted bathroom, which is such an obviously bad idea for a room with a bathtub in it, I still can't imagine what they were thinking.
