Hotel towels
It seems like all hotels, regardless of rating or price, have the same white, scratchy towels.  I'm always annoyed when I start drying myself off after a shower, thinking "Can't these idiots afford nicer towels or at least use fabric softener?"  But then I scratch that itch on the middle of my back, and all is well.  I like scratchy hotel towels. #travel

Squirrels are jerks
Level 3, a company that installs and maintains fiber optic cables, says that "squirrel chews" account for 17% of the damage done to their cables, down from 28% the year before.  A company spokesman said, "I don't understand what the big attraction is or why they feel compelled to gnaw through cables."  I have an opinion:  Squirrels are jerks.  That is all.  (via Consumerist) #technology
