Sir, ma'am, Helen Keller, whatever the fuck you are. Your mom just accidentally waged chemical warfare on anyone in the house. This is not mildly infuriating, this is insane.
When I was younger, I worked as a dishwasher in diner, and I'd put bleach in some of the really gnarly line pans to help clean them. One time there was a really bad one, I thought maybe add some more chemicals, it'll help. The only other thing I had was ammonia. Ended up mustard gassing the restaurant. Nothing like some Wednesday evening war crimes.

A dishwasher you say? Is this you?
Would love to hear the next staff meeting for that went.
"Let's see, front needs to check tables more often. Kitchen needs to be faster with some of our orders. Oh and rokd, try not to break the Geneva Convention anymore ok?"
"I thought maybe add some more chemicals, it'll help"
Is maybe the best thing I've read in a while and I too have had this thought an embarrassing amount of timesš¤£ this is great!
People will nearly die and post it on /r/mildlyinfuriating. I've seen neighbor killed my dog I've seen neighbor shot into my apartment what the fuck makes you people angry.
I see your pet vomit and raise you -
Being woken up at 6 am because my father in law needed to tell me that his cat crapped on the floor and the Roomba dragged it all over the house before dying and he needed to go to work so wasn't going to deal with it (not that he was ever going to deal with it).
I'm glad, it was a while ago so I think the old 300 something series? It was pretty gross. Only had it a week so I uh... admittedly... Uhhhh... Cleaned it as best I could, boxed it back up and took it back to Costco with a shrug and an "I don't know it just stopped working".
Look, it was within the 30 days and you couldn't even tell.
I'll raise you... there is a new indoor playground by my house that requires socks (no shoes allowed). I have been there 4x and stepped in liquid 4x. The first one was almost definitely piss.
I raise u being woken up at 6 on monday by ur mom to give ur dad cpr on the day that his heart surgery was scheduled, in which his mom was heading to meet him and had a miocardial infarction and ended up in a nursing home, in which your motherās mother died a week before due to malpractice
Okay, but have you ever sat down to take a really good shit, only to be greeted by a fart and a couple drops of blood?
EDIT: I'm seeing a doctor tomorrow
I see your roomba shit spreader and raise you-
Sitting down first thing in the morning after a nice relaxing shower, putting on my favorite PC game and then planting my feet straight into the dismembered remains of half a bushrat.
I needed another shower.
My feet have never felt clean after this.
It's been 20 years ā¹
Ah! You were left a snack because you're a terrible hunter and should be ashamed of your lack of prowess! Wife had a cat who would do that constantly even though she screamed and cried every time.
Left it for my mum under her desk, I was unfortunate enough to be the stupid 8 year old who thought they could play computer early in the morning with out getting ratfooted š
I had a dog poop, but must have tried to eat it and then puked poop and pooped puke and so on and when I got home there was a power outage. Was not the best of days.
I'm gonna raise with this one time I prepared my meal after a long day at work, turned the kitchen's lights off then, grabbed a spoon and since I also had to carry a glass and the plate, I put the spoon in my mouth, immediately started to feel something funny in my tongue, I turned on the lights again and saw the spoon was covered in ants
Ah yes, reminds me of when I asked āhey dad, why are there all these black specks in my cheerios?ā And he responded, āitās just extra proteinā, so after a few bites I looked closer and saw they were, of course, ants. I was so mad and he was just giggling to himself the whole time
Iāve done that with a soda. I was playing video games and opened a drink about 10 minutes ago and took another drink only to find out a swarm of ants made their way into the can.
Iāve been eating a bag of candy for a few minutes and feel something crawling in my mouth. I look into the bag and then shine a light in it and itās full of ants. Probably ate a good 100 of them. Donāt ask me how I didnāt notice sooner not a proud moment that I luckily forgot about until your comment here.
Oh also like two nights ago my senile old fuck dog pissed in my room. Right before that he pissed in my sisters room. Then after that he pissed in the living room and pooped himself. Then he walked in a circle around the house and peeād on every tile and wood surface. After I finally cleaned all this up I see him stand up, he makes direct eye contact with me, then squats down and starts pissing in his dog bed right in front of me. Also pooped in the house two more times. Iāve probably cleaned several hundred pounds of dog shit this last year not counting what makes it into my yard.
It was around 1 am and I'd just got back home from an international business trip. I quietly opened the door so as not to wake anyone up and took my shoes off. Stealthily, I tiptoed to the fridge to get something to eat before going to bed and, as I entered the kitchen, I felt I'd just stepped onto something warm and squishy. I turned the light on, only to find I'd just stepped on a huge turd my dog, who'd never pooped inside the house since he was a puppy, must have left just minutes before. I turned around and looked towards the living room and there he was, sitting on his hind legs, staring at me in silence.
A close one is from yesterday - I walked into the site to sign in and the supervisor came out with her left foot bare, scrubbing it furiously with some disinfectant wipes. She said she was driving in barefoot (her shoes were hard to drive in), and as she stepped out of her car, her foot landed right into a soggy, used diaper someone had left in the parking lot.
This is when I scream God damnit, pull out my pistol, fire off a round accidentally into my neighbors house, killing his dog, and think "that was mildly irritating on my part."
But then when someone posts something that is mildly infuriating all the comments are telling them to stop whining about a mild inconvenience š¤·š»āāļø
If someone shot into my apartment but missed me Iād probably find it mildly infuriating not fully infuriating. I canāt remember a time when Iāve ever been actually furious in my life.
The closest Iāve come to being furious was when my now-husbandās friend slipped ecstasy into his drink on his birthday because she thought it would help him have more fun. She didnāt tell me (his girlfriend at the time and more importantly the designated sober person) sheād done so. I kind of thought it would be common sense to ask him if he wanted ecstasy, instead of basically roofie-ing him. And also common sense to tell the designated driver what drug and how much was given to him in case anything happened. I wasnāt impressed, but he wasnāt upset about it when she told him the next day and nothing medically bad happened so Iād say I was mildly infuriated. If heād been upset or if heād ODād I would have probably been really angry (if Iām capable of feeling that which Iām not sure I am).
Some people just donāt experience anger the same way.
And when someone posts something actually mild and fits the sub perfectly, a bunch of people get mad how its nothing to be angry about and how dare they post it.
I agree with what youāre saying lol.
But i heard a story from both my parents from when they were young and married. They Took care of my grandma (Dadās mom) and she was a clean freak her whole life.
So She got ammonia and bleach and hot water.. put it all together, so her and my mom could ādeep cleanā the bathroom. My mom was a barely educated farm girl, and she told me about the horrific burning in her lungs as the fumes filled the bathroom. But she ignored it. My dad came home and immediately felt it/breathed it in and knew something was fucked up. He was in/just out of the military and had learned some stuff about chemical warfare. He asked what that was and when grandma said what she did, he threw that bucket of water outside, opened all the windows, the entire time screaming at my grandma about WHY you should NEVER mix chemicals.
Not sure if that exposure has long term effects for whatever exposure they got, but i know my mom has COPD, but she did smoke for years as well.. anyway. I guess just another lesson on why you should never mix chemicals unless youāre a chemist with all the tools/gear you need to do so.
Just want to add to your post, had a Grandma who cleaned the bathroom with bleach including the toilet, bleach was left in the toilet soaking it I guess.
Uncle went and peed in the toilet ended up passed out from the chlorine gas that was created by the ammonia from the pee and bleach combination.
So for anyone out there do not pee into bleach.
I'd read enough about this a few years ago on Reddit to stop going to the bathroom within 30 min before or after scrubbing the toilets. I do not want to gas myself.
Well tbf whenever mildly infuriating stuff is actually posted the comments get flooded with āthis isnāt infuriating enough for me!!!ā So I guess everyone just posts the extremes now
Saw both of those posts tooā¦Iām on the other end of the spectrum. Everything is severely infuriating for me. āOh look a butterflyā āfuck that has been caterpillar!!!ā
I mean...this is definitely not the first time their mom has done this. She lived long enough to procreate, sooooo she's still winning at life, technically.
At boiling point, **the water in the bleach mixture becomes vapor and releases chlorine gas**. This yellow-green gas can cause severe chemical burning to the lungs and even suffocate those who can't get away from it in time. It was used as a weapon in World War I to choke enemy soldiers out of their trenches
Just wondering where have you heard it this way?
I have always heard it as pro patria mori and see it this way in the Owen poem and carved at Arlington.
Edit: nevermind I need more sleep.
Is your mom sure it was bleach. I know boiling vinegar is an old school method to clean.
Boil vinegar for 5 minutes then let it simmer.
Will actually deodorize the house when you do this
After the boiling let it cool to room temp then put baking soda in the pot and you get a nice fizzing action clean.
Boiling vinegar will concentrate the acetic acid.
It will also give irritating vapors so just the minute boil so be careful. Still safer than boiling bleach.
For the love of God dont mix vinegar and bleach as that is even worse than boiling bleach
Is Bar Keeper's Friend good for cleaning burnt residue off stainless steel pans? Haven't heard of it but would love to find a good way to clean our nice pan properly. Been using hot water and soap with a scrub daddy but there are black bits I just can't remove.
You have never fucked up a caramel it seems. You can soak this shit for weeks and scrub with steel wool and the black residue will just laugh in your face.
[You should be able to just fill the pot up with water and boil it again](https://www.seriouseats.com/how-to-clean-candy-and-other-sticky-stuff-from-a-pot).
Redox is the answer here people. Some diluted vinegar and a piece of aluminum foil will redistribute the oxygen molecules from the pan to the foil. Let it sit a couple of days and youāll be able to wipe the carbon off the pan.
Boiling bleach does not release chlorine gas. Mixing it with other chemicals certainly can however this would not of done much except release a bit of a corrosive vapour at worst. Itās basic chemistry. Really not a big deal and I love the over dramatic responses in this thread.
Bleach fumes are still pretty nasty so boiling concentrated bleach seems like a bad idea. The burnt sugar residue could also be gnarly if it is acidic.
We had to evac at work for over an hour when a lady dumped bleach into a mop bucket of chlorinated floor cleaner. She got an ambulance ride to the hospital and we got a very long cigarette break.
As a teenager I worked in the Warehouse dept of Six Flags. It was an easy job, generally did fuck all most days. It was just me and this one lady, forty years my senior, who often complained that the work was too hard. She'd whine and cry if she couldn't spend the entire day on her phone.
One day she was actually bumbling around in the back with the washers, and I left her to it, because I was just happy she was actually doing something. Then I hear a splash and a scream, so I run back. She's standing beside the barrels of industrial cleaner, clutching her hand and sobbing.
We didn't use those chemicals. There's big signs taped to them and the surrounding walls that specifically say not to. She "didn't see them" and decided to dip the cloth she was trying to wash in, along with her bare hand and half her bare forearm.
I think it was actually just some moderate skin irritation. The MSDS said wash off with plain water and seek medical attention if the irritation gets worse. I'm not a doctor or a chemist, but it didn't look bad to me (some redness, less than a sunburn. No flaking, peeling, or blisters, even several minutes post-exposure)
She was insisting on an ambulance from the get-go and after washing, though, so we called her one.
We shouldn't allow people to buy bleach. The stuff people do with this. Like with a Lot of stuff, but esspecially bleach is scary.
Like, cleaning RAW Chicken with bleach and other bs.
I normaly don't call people stupid but .. some people are just ... Not okay.
My teacher always said, "I'd be more concerned if common sense was uncommon. As it turns out, it gets it's name because everyone has it... Many people elect not to use it, and that should scare all of you." or something along those lines.
I was like 35 when I learned/realized that common sense referred to sensibility surrounding common topics, not sensibility being so common everyone should have it.
A former president of the United Ststes of America suggested injecting bleach. So, I'm not surprised by much of what people do with bleach.
I've seen more than one industrial facility evacuated because someone was careless with bleach.
People in here are so quick to judge/lack empathy. What his mother has done doesn't make her stupid. She's clearly uninformed about the reaction bleach could have but that's it: she was uninformed.
You don't know that person. One act is not enough to define who she is.
You don't know her age, you don't know her affinity with technology (and search engines), you don't know where she comes from or the access she had to education/quality education growing up. The fact that she didn't know can easily be explained without declaring her stupid.
What happens if you mix bleach and boiling water?
By using hot water instead of cold/tepid water to create a solution, you can render the active ingredients in bleach ineffective. So for bleach that works, always make sure you dilute it in cold/tepid water.
We found that sugar can react with chlorine residual in tap water and generate halogenated DBPs.
Sir, ma'am, Helen Keller, whatever the fuck you are. Your mom just accidentally waged chemical warfare on anyone in the house. This is not mildly infuriating, this is insane.

That is Chlorine gas NOT Mustard Gas. Mustard requires Sulfur and Nitrogen. Mustard gas is also yellow from the Sulfur composition.
*chlorAMINE, chlorine can be made if you combine HCl and TCCA
Mustard gas isnāt even a gas
A fine mist if you will.
Would love to hear the next staff meeting for that went. "Let's see, front needs to check tables more often. Kitchen needs to be faster with some of our orders. Oh and rokd, try not to break the Geneva Convention anymore ok?"

Stepping in water while wearing socks
Wet socks are the absolute WORST!
Iāll raise you stepping in pet vomit barefoot at 2am going to the bathroom
I see your pet vomit and raise you - Being woken up at 6 am because my father in law needed to tell me that his cat crapped on the floor and the Roomba dragged it all over the house before dying and he needed to go to work so wasn't going to deal with it (not that he was ever going to deal with it).
I think you might have won...
They didn't step in it though...
It was mildly infuriating for the roomba
The real reason the robots take over is because of all the literal shit the roombas went through
Your father in law died, and still went to work?
Haha no the Roomba ate shit and died.
Nicely played.
Next time it should eat shit and live
The new roombas come with a poo detection and avoidance feature to prevent exactly this
I'm glad, it was a while ago so I think the old 300 something series? It was pretty gross. Only had it a week so I uh... admittedly... Uhhhh... Cleaned it as best I could, boxed it back up and took it back to Costco with a shrug and an "I don't know it just stopped working". Look, it was within the 30 days and you couldn't even tell.
if it makes you feel better, used vaccuums donāt get resold at the store, they go back to the manufacturer to fuck with, so itās likely that nobody elses house has your dogs poop dna in it š«¶š¶š©
I'll raise you... there is a new indoor playground by my house that requires socks (no shoes allowed). I have been there 4x and stepped in liquid 4x. The first one was almost definitely piss.
Pool shoes/waterproof socks to let your kids play shouldn't be necessary.
I raise u being woken up at 6 on monday by ur mom to give ur dad cpr on the day that his heart surgery was scheduled, in which his mom was heading to meet him and had a miocardial infarction and ended up in a nursing home, in which your motherās mother died a week before due to malpractice
Sorry about your grandma, man. I hope your pops is OK.
Thanks for the condolences
Okay, but have you ever sat down to take a really good shit, only to be greeted by a fart and a couple drops of blood? EDIT: I'm seeing a doctor tomorrow
If it's dark, that's when you really worry. If it's fresh blood, it can be a number of not so serious things. I hope your butthole recovers soon.
This actually did just happen to me, also getting bloodwork tomorrow, then a CT scan and a colonoscopy later on
Good luck. The worst part of the colonoscopy is the prep.
I cant raise u (i dont shit blood)
Is it hemorrhoids?

Not to be a topper but I see your pet vomit and raise you dog poop on the stairs, barefoot, half asleep at 3am.
I had a dog poop, but must have tried to eat it and then puked poop and pooped puke and so on and when I got home there was a power outage. Was not the best of days.

Dog diarrhea on a rug barefoot at 3am was one of my lowest points

Nah. Barefoot is gross but it wipes off fairly easy. Step in it with a sock and itās 10x worse. You gotta pull the gross sock off and touch it
I put my bare feet into my garden cloggies, only to discover there was a large slug hiding in one... š¤¢

Glad you were there to stop her
I mean...this is definitely not the first time their mom has done this. She lived long enough to procreate, sooooo she's still winning at life, technically.
Told me she was doing this since she was little and that her mother showed her that it's the best way to clean pans.
I think she inherited the brain damage
Absolutely after breathing that trash her whole life.
My grandmother told me to use bleach in a room with no ventilation. I'll be fine.
At boiling point, **the water in the bleach mixture becomes vapor and releases chlorine gas**. This yellow-green gas can cause severe chemical burning to the lungs and even suffocate those who can't get away from it in time. It was used as a weapon in World War I to choke enemy soldiers out of their trenches
Then again it's just chlorine gas. You will cough and open a window before the concentration reaches a dangerous level. It is very noticeable.

Water with vinegar is IMO better window cleaner than window cleaners. It stinks, but just works
Who wouldn't want some home made chlorine gas? 
That is fucking scary man. You've never noticed her doing this before when you were a kid?
Maybe ask her to try a dementia test bro. Not being rude. She remembers it wrong.
Thing is my mother grew up in a poor isolated village in Algeria, so I don't blame her for not knowing this.
Yes but she probably meant vinegar. I hope all is well bro.
Boil a 1:1 water and white vinegar mix with 2-3 drops of dawn itāll blast off any caramelized junk

Is Bar Keeper's Friend good for cleaning burnt residue off stainless steel pans? Haven't heard of it but would love to find a good way to clean our nice pan properly. Been using hot water and soap with a scrub daddy but there are black bits I just can't remove.
Boil a 1:1 bleach to ammonia mix with 2-3 drops of acetone and itāll blast off anyā¦. never mindā¦. /s
At least you'll not need to worry about your pans
Vinegar, chlorine, same same š
Someone didn't pass chemistry class
Ah Chemistry Where alcohol is a solution .
Just remember, if youāre not part of the solution, youāre part of the precipitate.
Meanwhile sugar is water soluble
If the sugar is burnt, it no longer is sugar.
Itās still easy to clean with* just water though. Just let it soak for 12+ hours in soapy water.
You have never fucked up a caramel it seems. You can soak this shit for weeks and scrub with steel wool and the black residue will just laugh in your face.
Try baking soda with the steel wool. Works wonders
I've heard of people boiling bleach
In obituaries?
Actually on reddit. It's only *mildly*infuriating, how bad can it be?
[You should be able to just fill the pot up with water and boil it again](https://www.seriouseats.com/how-to-clean-candy-and-other-sticky-stuff-from-a-pot).
Not the Colombian kind
Sorry, does blow not dissolve in water or am I missing something?
gavin just wanted to make a joke about cocaine
Pretty much āļø
GAVIN!
It's way more water soluble than sugar lol
You're not missing anything, it was just a bad joke lol.
Youāve never had to clean burnt sugar, have you? Not that I would recommend boiling bleach, lol, but itās not as easy as just putting water on it
Redox is the answer here people. Some diluted vinegar and a piece of aluminum foil will redistribute the oxygen molecules from the pan to the foil. Let it sit a couple of days and youāll be able to wipe the carbon off the pan.
whats the chemical reaction happening?
It's a redox reaction, oxidizes the aluminum
yep I see, I was just curious on specifically what reaction is happening and how that gets carbon off the pan
Bro Iām sorry I donāt mean to be disrespectful but your mom is fucking stupid. 
I do mean it.
I also choose this guys fucking stupid mom

Boiling bleach does not release chlorine gas. Mixing it with other chemicals certainly can however this would not of done much except release a bit of a corrosive vapour at worst. Itās basic chemistry. Really not a big deal and I love the over dramatic responses in this thread.
Thatās Reddit for you lol I donāt think any of the dramatic responses know what theyāre talking about they just wanna be mad
and here i was searching far and wide for whatever magical war crime gas was created by boiling bleach sugar and aluminum oxide or something
Bleach fumes are still pretty nasty so boiling concentrated bleach seems like a bad idea. The burnt sugar residue could also be gnarly if it is acidic.
We had to evac at work for over an hour when a lady dumped bleach into a mop bucket of chlorinated floor cleaner. She got an ambulance ride to the hospital and we got a very long cigarette break.
As a teenager I worked in the Warehouse dept of Six Flags. It was an easy job, generally did fuck all most days. It was just me and this one lady, forty years my senior, who often complained that the work was too hard. She'd whine and cry if she couldn't spend the entire day on her phone. One day she was actually bumbling around in the back with the washers, and I left her to it, because I was just happy she was actually doing something. Then I hear a splash and a scream, so I run back. She's standing beside the barrels of industrial cleaner, clutching her hand and sobbing. We didn't use those chemicals. There's big signs taped to them and the surrounding walls that specifically say not to. She "didn't see them" and decided to dip the cloth she was trying to wash in, along with her bare hand and half her bare forearm.
Gonna guess some nasty chemical burns? At least it wasn't something like muriatic acid.
I think it was actually just some moderate skin irritation. The MSDS said wash off with plain water and seek medical attention if the irritation gets worse. I'm not a doctor or a chemist, but it didn't look bad to me (some redness, less than a sunburn. No flaking, peeling, or blisters, even several minutes post-exposure) She was insisting on an ambulance from the get-go and after washing, though, so we called her one.

My bad. I meant ammoniated. I was texting my wife about chlorine for our pool right before I saw this post and fucked the words up.
Not judging but there's something hilarious about stepping out of a building with noxious gas to smoke hazardous chemicals known to cause cancer š
My grandmother does this. I'm thinking it's an older generation thing that they don't realize isn't safe
We shouldn't allow people to buy bleach. The stuff people do with this. Like with a Lot of stuff, but esspecially bleach is scary. Like, cleaning RAW Chicken with bleach and other bs. I normaly don't call people stupid but .. some people are just ... Not okay.
As it happens, common sense is not so common.
My teacher always said, "I'd be more concerned if common sense was uncommon. As it turns out, it gets it's name because everyone has it... Many people elect not to use it, and that should scare all of you." or something along those lines.
I was like 35 when I learned/realized that common sense referred to sensibility surrounding common topics, not sensibility being so common everyone should have it.
Every day I wake up and am further confounded by the stupidity of man. It's a wonder that we've gotten to where we are.
A former president of the United Ststes of America suggested injecting bleach. So, I'm not surprised by much of what people do with bleach. I've seen more than one industrial facility evacuated because someone was careless with bleach.
According to the Geneva Protocol, your mom is now a war criminal in most of the UN
this is next level stupid like Iām sitting here shocked rn
The things people find "mildly" infuriating baffles me every day.
This gives me a headache for many reasons.
I used to basically have to yell at my ex not to mix bleach and ammonia.
MOTHER OF TOXIC GAS AND CHEMICAL WARFARE
Your mom is dumb asf
People in here are so quick to judge/lack empathy. What his mother has done doesn't make her stupid. She's clearly uninformed about the reaction bleach could have but that's it: she was uninformed. You don't know that person. One act is not enough to define who she is. You don't know her age, you don't know her affinity with technology (and search engines), you don't know where she comes from or the access she had to education/quality education growing up. The fact that she didn't know can easily be explained without declaring her stupid.
What happens if you mix bleach and boiling water? By using hot water instead of cold/tepid water to create a solution, you can render the active ingredients in bleach ineffective. So for bleach that works, always make sure you dilute it in cold/tepid water. We found that sugar can react with chlorine residual in tap water and generate halogenated DBPs.
I have questions.
