Towelie is a talking towel who was genetically engineered by Tynacorp, in order to allow him to make people as dry as necessary depending on the situation. He is usually seen either appearing out of nowhere to give towel advice to the citizens of South Park, or getting high. The theme song from Popeye plays whenever Towelie gets high.
Towelie is said to be 17 in towel years, although how many actual years a "towel year" is worth is unknown. In "Crippled Summer" he had agreed to do an intervention. He also has been working at Lake Tardicaca and has been warned for getting high 14 times. Towelie was addicted to marijuana, crystal meth, and crack cocaine, and tried using heroin and inhaling computer duster. Towelie has been sober since April 26, 2010.

FamilyEdit
Added by Unknowgamer145Towelie is shown in the episode "Crippled Summer" to have a family. It consists of his girlfriend, named Rebecca whose face was blurred out, and their son together, named Washcloth.
Rebecca kicked Towelie out for being a bad influence on their son, preventing him from speaking to Washcloth when he was high. The boys use Washcloth as an incentive to get Towelie to get treatment. Towelie, Rebecca and Washcloth later moved back in together after Towelie kicked his addiction.
