Noxious Fumes

So you know when the label on the bottle of Drano reads "Do not use in conjunction with bathroom cleaners" and you think, "Ha, what idiot would do that?" Hi. Nice to meetcha.

I was cleaning the tub yesterday and noticed that it was draining very slowly so I grabbed the bottle of Drano and poured about half of it in there, just like it says. What I failed to think about was that the remaining bathroom cleaner was probably still in the drain. Uh. Yeah. Not good.

Bathroom cleaner + Drano = really noxious fumes.

Fortunately, my nose is quite used to noxious fumes in the bathroom so I didn't suffer any ill effects. Next time, I'll just not clean the tub.

That's just what you get for cleaning the bathtub. I mean really, what kind of crazy would clean a bathtub. With heavy cleansers. And like, ugly sparse clothing on and their hair in a bandana. Or like, twice since they moved to a new apartment...

Them folks crazy.

I was just really impressed that you attempted the cleaning in the first place!
