I've got towel fever... and the only cure is more towels!

Popularity factor: 5

Ali:

A towel... with a pocket?


Matt:

I think that bit was saying that you can put it in your pocket (when dry). It would be cool if it did have a pocket though. Then it could be advertised as the only towel so absorbent it could actually absorb other towels.


IbaDaiRon:

My god, man, you've ad copy there! Quick, send it off to them!

Might suggest a built-in transceiver of some sort as well, eh? Important to always know where the thing is, too, no?

(I'm wondering about the processes that give rise to wasei-eigo creations like pocket in. Any relation to bed in, you think?)


Matt:

Ha! No doubt!

I always assumed that "Bed In" was based on the structure of ベッドに or something like that..


IbaDaiRon:

The first time I heard it I thought the conversation had suddenly, inexplicably, shifted to the topic of Arab nomads.

(And with that reference we could kishoutenketsu back to the original topic. But I shan't.)
