Protip!

If there's a towel over a car's window, it's likely there for a reason.

Especially after a rainstorm.

Also, lecturing me on how a wet towel is bad for the paint is not only unwanted, it's unwelcomed. Yes, a wet towel is bad for the paint, but water on the floor is bad for the iron.

I have issues with people touching my car without asking.

...Why would someone mess with your car without asking? (In a supposedly-helpful way, I mean, as opposed to douchebag messing with your car.)

I'm trying to figure that out, myself.

If he'd just come and asked me why it was there and maybe voiced a concern, I wouldn't have minded. But he pulled the towel off, then came and knocked on my door to give me said lecture.

...Was this your landlord?

No. Some neighbor who lives a ways down the hill.

I've seen his car before (a purple water-pumper VW Bus), but have never spoken to him before today.

In that case I should hope you gave him a Serously I WILL Kill You To Death Glare and told him to never touch your car again.

Clearly someone with nothing better to do. :P

Pretty much.

I would be beyond pissed! NOT acceptable!

I was torn between keeping the peace and just telling him where he could stick the towel. But peace won out. ...barely.

I'da been seriously tempted to roll said (wet/damp?) towel up and give him a really good *snap* on the hiney.

Or, at the least, on the hood of his car as he drove off.

I think I may start pinning a laminated sign to the towel that says, "HERE FOR A REASON. DO NOT REMOVE."
