Towel bars are hard to use....

Cover1W's picture

So I was in SDs bathroom today, because family is visiting and I put up some towels for them. Noticed SD9 towel bar was half loose. Go to take a look and it's actually partly yanked off wall. This was just put in, by me with SD9 help and I advised her to be careful and not yank her towels or hang herself off the bar, in June.

I simply tell DP I am removing the towel bar as I will not be fixing it any longer (SDs have a history of yanking the things out of the wall). He says, "Well, in her defense towel bars are hard to use. It's hard to get the dammed towel over the bar."" I say, "no, they aren't. I know you have trouble with both bars and hooks but they really not hard." (DP consistently just shoves towels on top of bars, drapes them in the shower stall or I find them on the floor, less often that now, or on a chair. He has a bar AND a hook!).

I walk away, put up a simple hook, notice SD9s other hook is loose, shrug. If anything else is yanked off wall I'll fix the hole but no more hooks or bars. She can leave towels on floor or DP can handle it.

Well turning a page in a book must be actually something a person in his family must find akin to a phD.

LOL We don't have towel bars in the skids bathroom, but there is a floor rack...they don't use it either. towels on the floor y'all! Cause you got to be freakin Einstein to figure out how to make a towel hang over that barr.

I gave up on the TP and flush issue! So yes, that was a problem (I disengaged from that months ago). Sad

If I had his cc and went to Ikea on my own I'd end up with a new kitchen counter and sink. SD towel rack? LOL!

The thought of using a towel bar - and all of the difficulties involved - make me want to spike my coffee.... Wink

wth was I thinking's picture

My SD's will cram three big towels on the tiny hook behind the door (they usually fall off), rather than use the full sized towel bar that is literally, right next to the door. I do not understand, but apparently it is a remarkably difficult task.
