How often do you wash your towels? The ones you use after you bathe. Those towels. Some people wash them after a use or two. I urge you to give serious thought to the events that transpire before you answer this critical question.
You've just come out of the tub or shower. Your entire purpose in there was to clean your hair and/or body. Clean....as in no dirt, no sweat, no nothin' except.....well, cleanliness. You step out, dripping with clean water and dry yourself with a towel. The towel isn't dirty afterward, just a little wet. It'll dry.....but it'll still be clean because you left all the dirt and other crap behind to go down the drain and out into the world. It isn't on you anymore, therefore and ergo, it won't be on the towel when you're done, right? Which means the towel itself isn't dirty because you can't transfer something you don't have. Since the towel is still clean, there's no need to wash it. Am I right? Never mind....I know I am.

And yet, people want to wash them anyway.
Granted, they probably have dust or dead skin cells or bug parts (or whatever else floats around in the air) on them, but that would happen when they're sitting in the linen closet too. If you want clean (completely, totally, really clean) towels to dry yourself with, you should wash it immediately before you bathe, run it through the clothes dryer, then dry yourself. I'll admit, warm towels out of the dryer are pretty nice, but it sounds like a lot of work to me. However, if you insist on towels at the apex of their cleanliness cycle, that's the way to do it. I'm pretty sure that the CDC or FDA or someone has done a study that confirms this.
The other bathroom decision has to do with toilet paper, but truly, that's a no-brainer. It goes over, not under, for those of you who may be sadly unaware. Then all you have to do is kinda whack the roll on the top and -- voila! -- toilet paper, unrolled and ready for business. You know....your business.
How often do you wash your towels? Do you, or someone you know and love, think that they are dirty after a use or two?
Have you been there?
