Towel

The most useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value - you can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a mini raft down the slow heavy river Moth; wet it for use in hand-to- hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or to avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal ; you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.

More importantly, a towel has immense psychological value. For some reason, if a strag (strag: non-hitch hiker) discovers that a hitch hiker has his towel with him, he will automatically assume that he is also in possession of a toothbrush, face flannel, soap, tin of biscuits, flask, compass, map, ball of string, gnat spray, wet weather gear, space suit etc., etc. Furthermore, the strag will then happily lend the hitch hiker any of these or a dozen other items that the hitch hiker might accidentally have "lost". What the strag will think is that any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still knows where his towel is is clearly a man to be reckoned with."
If you want to survive out here, you've got to know where your towel is.

Abortion Tolerant

A better term for pro-choice if you aren't necessarily for abortions but also not against it.
I don't like abortions but I'm not against them entirely, I guess you could say I'm Abortion Tolerant

Trick Towel

A towel that is kept close to the bed so your one night stand has a towel to wipe off post sex before she/he leaves.
I made sure I had a trick towel close by so Julio can wipe up and leave quickly after he fucks me.

Jizz Towel

A towel used to soak up your jizz once you get turned on by something extremly sexy like blood on the dance floor or oldmen walking their tiny dogs while riding their scooters. A portable version of a jizz towel is the new and improved handy jizz rag.
Example one: "jarrod matthew is so amazing and his eyes are so yummy, I luvers him"

"jeez dude, get your fucking jizz towel ready"

Example two: -riding in the car- "HOLYWALNUTS! did you just see that bilboard with Morgan Freemen?!"

"dude... I got this handy portable jizz rag for you to use"
