{{{Sparky, DH and Family}}} I'm so sorry for your loss.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Besides if Teppy's going in with her Louisville Slugger I'd have to reconsider.

Oh, it's on hand, believe me. I don't treat the sentient mold lightly.

Yeah. A woman with a baseball bat has changed some men's minds.

Could you maybe negotiate with the sentient mold? Give it twenty-four hours to leave on its own volition or you'll come back with bleach?

The sentient mold refused to negotiate. In fact, it made insulting comments about my parentage, so it is now trapped under paper towels soaked in full-strength bleach.

A few observations:

(1) You can call it "fresh rain" scent bleach, but that doesn't make it smell like anything other than a gigantic bucket of pool chemicals.

(2) Perhaps I should have purchased rubber gloves, or at least made sure there were no cuts on my hands.

(2a) But I know those cuts aren't infected, boy howdy.

(3) Breathing in bleach fumes can't possibly be good for the continued survival of my brain cells.

Update in 20 minutes or so, after the mold has had a chance to stew in the bleach.

In the meantime, I'm trying to vent the noxious gases without making myself sick. I'm beginning to think flames would have been a better plan.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Teppy, I think that only the original scent of bleach disinfects.

Hmm. I see the good people at Clorox say "Only Clorox® Regular-Bleach is EPA Registered for sanitization and disinfection."

So....nobody rat me out to the EPA, okay? I figure bleach is bleach, and "fresh rain" is what was in the closet. If the sentient mold succumbs to it, I'm okay with that.

t edit I don't mean that to be snippy; I'm just a rebel when it comes to bleach, I guess.

What is even happening?

I think they're using "regular" to differentiate between the chlorine bleach and the Clorox II. If your poofy flowery Clorox is chlorine bleach, you're disinfecting, even while you kill brain cells.
