He's wipped his shit on my towels!!!

Friend has decided to come to stay with her boyfriend this weekend.

Said boyfriend had a shower this morning, and obviously decided to wipe his arse on my towels. There is shit on one of them- sorry if TMI, but it's like skids, not chunks so I think it's just arse-drying-and-realising-your-arse-is-still-shitty iykwim.

Regardless, it's fucking disgusting and they were a birthday present- cost a small fortune from the white company.

AIBU to go out tomorrow and buy another and give him the bill???

I haven't confronted- but I made a point of putting the towels in the wash as we sat down for dinner earlier and he didn't even look embarrassed.

Yes - you would be very U and rude.

It's not nice but put them on a hot wash with dettol antibac and some vanish gold. They will be fine.

SurlyCue · 14/08/2015 20:54

Well perhaps he thought he was clean until he dried himself. He cant exactly reverse the process once its done. Would you prefer he binned the towel? Why were you examining the towels?

TenForward82 · 14/08/2015 20:54

Eh, if you were throwing them away, I'd say go for it, but you're washing them.

Either way, he's still gross and I'd ask him to behave decently when in someone else's house. I'd also ask him why the f**k he never learned to wipe properly.

PurpleWithRed · 14/08/2015 20:54

He probably didn't know he'd done it. I think yabu.

ThatBloodyWoman · 14/08/2015 20:54

Yabu.
If they're special you maybe should have put old ones out.
They'll wash.
The earth will continue to revolve on its axis.

TenForward82 · 14/08/2015 20:54

SurlyCue decent thing to do would be to own up and offer to replace them. It's embarrassing but so is not knowing how to wipe your own ass.

usualsuspect333 · 14/08/2015 20:55

This thread is disgusting.

What is the MN obsession with bloody shit.

ObsidianBlackbirdMcNight · 14/08/2015 20:55

Wow to still have a shitty arse enough t leave skids after a shower he must have been properly filthy. Tell your friend and she might dump him in disgust.

scarletforya · 14/08/2015 20:55

Oh my God, the dirty, filthy animal. How disgusting, he should be shamed. Tell him to dry his arse with toilet paper like a civilized person.

That is disgusting and rank. I would have to throw the towel out.

usualsuspect333 · 14/08/2015 20:56

Oh yeah I'm sure you would say 'sorry about the shit on your White Company towels'

Maybe put your Tesco towels out for guests.

SurlyCue · 14/08/2015 20:56

If he knew about it.

some people have issue that mean they can have problems staying clean and they dont always realise when it has happened.

dementedma · 14/08/2015 20:57

Meh. It will wash.

LeftMyRidingCropInTheMortuary · 14/08/2015 20:57

Are you sure he realised he'd made a mark on them? Not to be gross but sometimes I don't realise until I pick up the towel again that I have, ahem, maybe wiped some menstrual blood or something by accident.

I'm afraid it's a risk you take when you have guests. It's would be horrifically rude to draw attention to such a thing and might ruin your friendship with your friend. This person is not a flatmate, they are a guest in your home (and possibly mortified if he DID realise). I doubt he did it on purpose so no need for public humiliation.

SurlyCue · 14/08/2015 20:58

Is that how you dry your arse after a shower? Shock

gointothewoods · 14/08/2015 20:58

Am I the only one wondering who the fuck gets towels for their birthday?! Confused

TenForward82 · 14/08/2015 20:59

some people have issue that mean they can have problems staying clean and they dont always realise when it has happened.

I know this only too well. I have IBS and have to use up half the toilet roll to make sure I'm clean - but I bloody well make sure I'm clean.

I'd apologise for the TMI but if you click on this thread, well ...

SurlyCue · 14/08/2015 21:00

I'd be depressed to get given towels for my birthday.

ShatnersBassoon · 14/08/2015 21:00

Wash them.

Confront him too. That won't be weird at all. "You didn't wash your arse properly. Here is the evidence, smeared on my expensive towel. Here is the bill for another expensive towel. I will wash the towel, but I will never be able to use it without thinking of your unwashed arsehole. It was lovely to meet you."

gointothewoods · 14/08/2015 21:00

Oh and just wash the flippin towel. Maybe he didn't realise.
Your towels get other body outputs on them you know, am sure your towels get skin flakes, snot, ear wax, dandruff, menstrual blood, vaginal secretions, penile secretions, all kind of stuff on them. If you actually use them. Isn't that kind of the point of them, to wipe yourself off with them?? You run the risk of getting "stuff" on your towels. If you are that precious about your towels, frame them.

SurlyCue · 14/08/2015 21:01

"I have IBS and have to use up half the toilet roll to make sure I'm clean - but I bloody well make sure I'm clean."

Thats great that you can make sure. Others just cant.

TenForward82 · 14/08/2015 21:02

I'd love to know how that is, unless you're referring to obesity? Cos that's a-whole-nother thread.

LeftMyRidingCropInTheMortuary · 14/08/2015 21:02

Lol at "framing" your towels!!!

Reminds me of Monica in friends who had 11 categories of towel: guest, fancy, fancy guest...

VivaLeBeaver · 14/08/2015 21:02

Reminds me of that episode of Embarrassing Bodies with the bloke who was worried that his arse smelt of shit all the time. He had an examination by Dr Christian who diagnosed that he had a shitty arse and needed to wipe better.

AuntyMag10 · 14/08/2015 21:03

It would be disgusting of you to point this out to him. Most likely he didn't know. What's the problem with washing themConfused

SurlyCue · 14/08/2015 21:04

I'd love to know how that is, unless you're referring to obesity? Cos that's a-whole-nother thread.

Really? You'd love to know the intracies of someone else's anal leakage problems? Hmm
