This what happened when I was staying with a friend.
On the first day, my friend had a shower first. I had the next shower and after my shower I reached out for a dry bathmat hanging on the rail.
But you know what?
Instead of a dry bathmat I pulled a large but wet bathmat off the towel-rail.
I managed to dry my feet but very slowly.
I said to my friend that I didn’t like that and next time I would like to have a dry bathmat to stand on.
On the next day, my friend had a shower first. I had the next shower and after my shower I reached out for the large, dry bathmat hanging on the rail.
But you know what? Instead of a large, dry bathmat I pulled a big but wetter-than-the-day-before bathmat off the towel-rail.
I managed to dry my feet but very, very slowly.
I said to my friend that I didn’t like that and next time I would like to have a dry bathmat to stand on.
On the next day, my friend had a shower first. I had the next shower and after my shower I reached out for the big, dry bathmat hanging on the rail.
But you know what? Instead of a big, dry bathmat I pulled a small but much wetter-than-the-day-before bathmat off the towel-rail.
I managed to dry my feet but very, very, very slowly.
I said to my friend that I didn’t like that and next time I would like to have a dry bathmat to stand on.
On the next day, my friend had a shower first. I had the next shower and after my shower I reached out for the small, dry bathmat hanging on the rail.
But you know what? Instead of a small, dry bathmat I pulled a tiny but much, much wetter-than-the-day-before bathmat off the towel-rail.
I said to my friend that I didn’t like that and next time I would like to have a dry bathmat to stand on.
I managed to dry myself but very, very, very, very slowly.
On the next day, my friend had a shower first. I had the next shower and after my shower I reached out for the tiny, dry bathmat hanging on the rail.
But you know what? Instead of a tiny, dry bathmat I pulled a puddle from the towel rail.
I tried to dry my feet very, very, very, very, very slowly but I ended up slipping into the puddle and do you know what?
I slipped in all the way to the other side of the world where everyone was walking upside down and speaking backwards.
I said to my friend that I didn’t like that and next time I would like to have a dry bathmat to stand on.
But my friend didn’t understand what I was saying because I was speaking backwards so she never ever let me have a dry bathmat.
So that is why you should always leave the bathmat dry after a shower. If you don’t the next person will end up on the other side of the world, speaking backwards.
