Towel Day? ? ?

With all the important events throughout history why do we have a mere towel day, we use them usually in the privacy of our bathrooms when showering or bathing. When going swimming in a pool or at the beach, what significance do they really hold for any of us, just a piece of material in everyone's bathroom at home. Doing nothing much else except what I've stated above, so why did I waste my precious time writing this inane poem about towel day? When I could've written something important or relevant, beats me! didn't have anything else to do in this particu- lar moment I guess.
