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.

Best thread ever. I got the giggles from the typo in the title and now have stomach ache from laughing through the thread. Thanks Allah!

SurlyCue I cant do links on here but if you google Missoni butterfly towel you will see it in all its glory, am now lusting after the dressing gown.

PastaPot · 14/08/2015 23:56

Oops that was meant to be thanks all!

MikeEhrmentraut · 14/08/2015 23:56

Am I right in saying then that some people actually dry theur arsehole and crack with the towel post-shower? That's what this thread seems to suggest but that seems bizarre to me.

BigRedBall · 14/08/2015 23:57

Thanking Allah for laughing at a thread about skid marks on a towel...now that's funny Grin...

UghMug2 · 15/08/2015 00:01

What if he has some kind of inflammatory bowel disease which is known to cause leakage & he didn't realise until after he'd washed and dried? In that situation wwyd? Would you own up that you excreted all over the posh towels or hide the towel in the cistern & hope nobody realises it's gone until you're 200miles away?

Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost · 15/08/2015 00:02

Well you're not being unreasonable to buy another towel but you are being unreasonable by embarrassing him and giving him the bill. He'd be mortified if he knew. No good will come of embarrassing him. It's not as if he had a big dollop of a shit and used your towels to wipe his arse.
Just put them on a boiled wash with lots of comfort and vanish.

JonSnowKnowsSomeThings · 15/08/2015 00:04

They're always going to be tainted now though aren't they! Bin them, you'll never feel the same about them.

SilverNightFairy · 15/08/2015 00:04

How exactly does one go about confronting a guest with poo stains? Do you rub his nose in it? Smack him with a rolled Daily Mail?

Have you checked your sheets for the famous MN poo crumbs? Those will really frost your biscuits.

Zucker · 15/08/2015 00:06

This is the best bit of all 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.

Passive aggressive wash cycle HAHA. As if the partner noticed what you were up to OP!

These poo threads are a bit of a thing on MN though aren't they?

Hellochicken · 15/08/2015 00:09

Yy thanks for the thread, laughed a lot!

YABU to suggest billing him for a new towel. Hot wash. (don't forget hot wash the bedding too). Feel sorry for your friend.

YourMaNoBraBackOfMyCar · 15/08/2015 00:13

Oh god. I know what happened here. He flossed his crack with your posh towel. I saw dh do it once.

Viz used to run 'adverts' for this, OP. These days, I reckon you could get a Kickstarter campaign going for a fold-away Clag-Gone 2.0

bodenbiscuit · 15/08/2015 00:34

Ewww - what the hell is wrong with people?

bodenbiscuit · 15/08/2015 00:34

YANBU - he should replace them

bodenbiscuit · 15/08/2015 00:35

I'm sorry but he must have been able to see what he did

LunaSonny · 15/08/2015 00:53

Bin them.
Or boil wash them.
Then move on.

(still weeping with laughter at some of the comments)

squoosh · 15/08/2015 01:04

Buy him some of this as a parting present.

Salmotrutta · 15/08/2015 01:39

I haven't RTFT.

But (d'Ya see what I did there) YABU to draw attention to it.
He is a guest.
Suck it up.
It would be very rude and ignorant to make a guest feel embarrassed and uncomfortable in your home.
And even without skid marks this guest would still have been drying his nether regions on your towels. How d'Ya like them apples OP?

mathanxiety · 15/08/2015 02:58

Yes Mike. Unbelievable.

lunalelle · 15/08/2015 03:13

I would rather not 'suck it up' in the op's situation...such imagery!

Surely a woman would be ill-advised to deploy the 'flossing' method? This is why it is always a man :)

stargazer2030 · 15/08/2015 04:21

Apart from being highly amused I am b shocked that someone would dry themselves so thoroughly using a hosts towel. I usually have a very quick dry then wrap the towel round me. Wouldn't dream of flossing /drying my nether regions with such vigour in someone else's house...

UghMug2 · 15/08/2015 05:50

I'm really curious as to why comments like 'he must've seen what he did' makes a difference. Unless he specifically set out to shite all over the posh towel, seeing what he did after the event is irrelevant. True it might have given him the opportunity to throw towels straight into the washing machine without getting caught but who here would honestly go up to a host & say 'Sorry I've shat all over your towel?'

LavenderLeigh · 15/08/2015 06:15

It makes a difference because it is vile to wipe your arse on a white towel and leave obvious skid marks and then to ignore that.
He had access to hot water and soap. He should have washed his shit off the towel.
It is so obvious that it should not have to be said.
You do not leave your shot on a towel. Ever. You pick it up, walk to the basin, turn on tap, wet towel apply soap and wash the towel.
We are talking about an adult.
Whether or not he has a bowel issue is irrelevant because he did have access to washing facilities and should have dealt with it.
He didn't though, which is why he's doubly disgusting
