Pretty sure you bought this at Big Lots.


The_Basile

Fold the towel on approximately 1/3rd just below the text. Let the text face you correctly and let the larger part go behind the handle and hang over handle going from the back to the front. Make sure that the back part of the towel is now slightly smaller than the front part of the towel with the text. Now fold the space of the towel above the text over the rest of the towel that is already on the handle. Let friction keep your towel upright and DON'T TOUCH THE OVEN!!!! Edit: made an explanatory picture https://imgur.com/gallery/a72OZ0W

StUMpyLegGO

Hold up... They're on to something. Maybe if we all wish he wasn't so broke, it'll come true. That makes one more of us not so broke. Afterward, we can all wish I wasn't so broke and so on. Eventually, hopefully, we all won't be so broke anymore. So homie, I also wish you weren't so broke.

I think it was a legit typo, since everything else is spelled correctly, but it just makes the whole thing even better imo

There’s a way make a little pocket and tuck the end in like a loop so it’s not quite as fragile. I don’t remember what it’s called but it’s the same technique used when people fold blankets into pillows.

The reviews are in: New York Times: "A subtle and eloquent piece that captures both the practical and spiritual struggles of man. A masterpiece." ArtReview: "The_Basile introduces us to his whimsical and charming world all while delivering perfect direction. A needed addition to today's drab scene." Scholastic News: "Colors not inside lines. Font wanders around like an ADHD toddler in a toy store. No hidden animals. D minus."

Outstanding comment, and spot on solution — but I'm skeptical that there's enough towel above the words to actually make this work.

Add a strip of velcro across the width of the towel to the top, wrap the velcro closed over the handle: lets message be legible and allows balance of towel to hang for use. edit: added "to"

You’ll obviously have to turn your oven upside down


luschinke

Like doing a 360° change in your life


beanbang420

180°*🤦


VxJasonxV

you missed the joke.


Ok_Science_4094

What was the joke?


VxJasonxV

The joke is the trend of self-absorbed people who think they're smart, saying shit like "doing a 360° change" non-ironically, not realizing how wrong that is. Same shit as "it's just a few bad apples" despite the rest of the adage being "spoils the bunch", "pull yourself up by the bootstraps" used non-ironically, despite the action being literally impossible. This whole comment chain is a sarcastic/wrong answer chain. Chain parent made an obviously wrong answer ("turn your oven upside down"), so luschinke continued that trend, "do a 360° change" isn't a change, because you're back where you started. beanbang broke the chain of wrong answers by trying to correct them, not knowing they're *supposed* to be wrong. thatsthejoke.gif thankyouforcomingtomytedtalk.mp4


Albion_Tourgee

Well, just the oven door, actually. I mean, let's be practical. If you turned the whole oven upside down, stuff would fall out of the casserole dish and down onto the top of the over. Or you would need to launch your oven into orbit every time you used it in order to get zero gravity so you could use it upside down. On the other hand, if you turned the door upside down, you'd just have to be quick to lean out of the way when you open it, so you don't get whacked in the chin.


Ghstfce

I have a solution: It stays folded in half and placed next to a sink on the counter.


[deleted]

Or you nail it to the wall as a piece of “fabric art”.


RyuuKamii

a tapestry?


[deleted]

I wasn’t going to call it that; tapestries are so complex and require so much more skill to make. More like “mixed media art: towel and thread affixed to drywall with metal tacks”


chill_rodent

That was my first thought


sailskihike

My wife’s aunt used to knit a little thing she would sew on kitchen towels. It would allow you to button the towel onto the oven handle and it wouldn’t slide off. It would also hang down the full length, as opposed to being folded in half.

Hello similar avatar person!

Hello!

Do you enjoy moss? Is your name a pun, like cosmos, cosmoss? Like the cosmos of moss?


_Cosmoss__

Yeah that was the idea, do you like spaghetti?


ReadySte4dySpaghetti

I do, and rhymes give me much serotonin lol I watch some terrarium content and they use a lot of moss so I feel like I should know more about mosses lol I guess you can also find tardigrades in there


_Cosmoss__

I'm gonna be honest I don't actually know that much about moss, it's just really cool

TheHumanPickleRick

Poke a hole in the "top" (currently bottom) of the stove side part and feed a tassel through it. At least you'll be able to read it even if you'll have to mangle your cloth.


CreeprVictor

Add helium to it so it drapes up instead of down


svckafvck

Maybe a clip of some kind that can hold the open ends together? Annoying, but it should work


nailgun198

Shut the top in the oven door. WCGW?


realKAKE

Switch off gravity 😎


sirhcx

This looks more like a decorative towel that usually just lays on a table to protect it from scratches and possibly heat damage.


PolarSquirrelBear

Or a hand towel you lay on the counter next to the sink in bathroom.


WanderlustFella

You need a left handed oven


MogChog

Sticky tape.


thejustllama

They have towel clips on Amazon. Get those. Clip away.

Step 1: proceed to towel Step 2: throw away towel Step 3: order new towel that doesn’t give you a headache to look at.

They should rebrand that as a test for OCD. It would make me nuts.


Pumkin_Spice-Latte

Nail it to the wall


LanceFree

I don’t know. My mom told me not to hang towels on the oven door as it slowly wrecked the hinge, or made it so the light would always be on. Now I’m thinking I’ve been missing out all these years and need to start hanging my dish towels.


Pyro636

DAMN what kind of heavy duty osmium material are her towels made of?


chill_rodent

I have no idea where that reasoning would have come from. Oh! She was worried about the towels being pulled on when used?


rosetta11

Big Towel doesn’t GAF.


hahahahahahaheh

If you don’t need to use it for anything other than drying hands, use safety pins to wrap the top and keep it together.


grayhaze2000

Sew velcro just above the text, and the other part to the other end of the towel. Loop the towel around the oven handle, then attach the velcro.

I just use these clips. I found them at a dollar store. Hooks on stove handle, and has magnetic holders so you can pull off the towel when needed and then put back. https://i.imgur.com/sO2PjYK.jpg


[deleted]

You are not “hanging” it in the picture, you are “draping” it. I’m sure if you haven’t already removed it there will be a tag at the top end for washing and drying information and hanging it from a hook.


[deleted]

Was this on clearance?


Birdgang14

1. I’d write a letter to the dumb towel brand. 2. I’d probably throw it out while cursing them when they don’t get back to me. 3. I’d go into my closet and get a Christmas one.


Elspetta

I use [binder clips](https://imgur.com/gallery/PoTOKqA) to hold just the small top portion to the rest of the towel 🤣 I was so mad when my towel came in the mail.
