Towelie: Don't forget to bring a towel.
Stan: What?
Towelie: When you get out of the water you need to dry off right away to avoid catchin' a cold. That's why Towelie says, 'Don't forget to bring a towel.'
Stan: ...O-kay.
Kyle: Thanks, Towelie.
(Silence)
Towelie: Do you wanna get high?
| Cartman: You just have no long-term memory 'cause you get high all the time!
Towelie: Don't preach to me, fatso!
Cartman: I can preach to you all I want, 'cause you're stupid!
Towelie: You're stupid!
Cartman: Yeah, and you're a towel!
| Cartman: You are the worst character ever, Towelie.
Towelie: I know.
| Evil Towel: C'mon Towelie, how long's it been since you had a nice burn? Twenty? Thirty seconds?
