People in this thread, unironically:
Why would I change either?
I mean, I’m a hoopy frood, So I know where my towel is, and it’s full of all kinds of nutrients due to the competing microbes that compose its flora. You don’t just waste that kind of ecosystem by changing towels every decade.
And sheets? What about the memories? Every stain is a mark of something wonderful that happened. Except the ones that are marks of something horrific that happened. Or the ones that are just spilled beverages. But, you know, that’s still plenty of good memories you want washed down the drain, you animal you.
Best be careful when changing sheets anyway. It’d be a shame if your mattress wasn’t properly killed before being shipped from Sqornshellous Zeta and it went on a flollop rampage after being exposed to too much sunlight.
bath towels: weekly
bedding: every 2 or 3 weeks, depending on the season
Reverse this for me. I shower first thing in the morning every day and my bath towels are just drying clean skin. They only touch me for maybe a minute or two before being hung to dry.
However, I go to sleep at night, after a full day of developing natural body oils on my skin. And I lie in bed for 8+ hours at a time.
My bed sheets are far more gross after a week of use than my towel will get in a month, more or less a couple weeks.
Not enough
Assuming im not in the midst of creating a depression fort out of garbage and laundry its 1-2 weeks for bedding and towels are roughly every week. Look like I’m average itt at least. So one less thing to feel bad about yay!
