So my friend's job contract is coming due in a couple months and he doesn't have anything new lined up. He's decided to move back in with his parents at the end of the month. So he threw a party on Friday, mostly a sausage-fest. But that's not important right now.

He has to have the place clean by the end of the month so he can get his deposit back. Only his bathroom looks like a science experiment. Shower is moldy, the toilet is stained - that's what happens when you're a bachelor without a GF. -No one to tell you to clean up your mess. Basically, you have to wash the bar of hand soap before you can wash your hands with it. Found this out when I went to go relieve myself of all the beer I had consumed.

It's difficult to get your deposit back if you're cultivating new forms of fungus in your bathroom.

So I looked in his cabinet and found some Clorox Toilet Bowl Cleaner:



It was a two-pack, unopened, obviously. I threw some into the bowl - didn't use a brush, just squirted the stuff under the rim. Because it has the consistency of say Ranch salad dressing, it clings to the sides and bleaches as it clings.

So I took the cleaner and poured it onto the shower areas, the parts that were really moldy. For the crawling up the corners, I just started at the top and let it drip down.

I had to open up the bathroom window because the stuff gives off a strong odor. The guys complained about it. Every hour or so I went back in to add more cleaner to the bowl.

Anyway, this morning he was getting ready to take a load of stuff to his folks' house and decided to call me to say that the shower area is cleaner than he remembers it ever was while he lived there.

SO, for all you lazy bastards out there, this is an easy way to clean your bathroom - bleaching the hell out of it. It's better than using regular liquid bleach because liquid bleach doesn't stick to the sides of vertical surfaces.

Anyway, that's how I'm doing it from now on.

Haha. Yeah. Hydrazine. Forgot not everyone paid attention in chem class.

I once worked at a place where they mopped the floor with that combo. I was feeling ill and asked them what they used to mop floor - bleach and ammonia.

When I explained what that produced and how harmful it can be they just looked at me with blank stares.

Happened only once. After that that they stopped mopping the floor while I was there. Presumably they still used the same combo.

Idiots.

FYI: Bleach kills AIDS.
