I see no problem with this. This is why I no longer eat and drink at Hooters the night before a day on the water.

LMAO, that was fricken hilarious.

Maintenance wipe? Is that what you call it when you shart?

True story.

It was late, probably 1-2am, and I was doing surveillance when all of sudden out of know where I had to take a major. I knew from the rumbles and butterflies in my stomach that it wasn't going to be nice. I must have driven to 3 different stores and they were either closed or bathroom was out of service. By this time, my belt was off and pants unbuttoned but no where to do my doo. I parked behind an empty store, dropped the tailgate and let'er lose. Man did I feel good but what a mess I made. I was out of paper towels and only had Clorox wipes. I figured they were good for cleaning my hands and wiping down the dashboard so they must be good for wiping. NOT the case, especially if you have a hemorrhoid. Bleach and hemorrhoids don't get along. My ARS was on FIRE.

i laughed at that as well. i think shes talkin bout him wiping just for the sake of wiping to stay fresh ;D ;D ;D

Clorox wipes?  Yikes!!!!

You've never seen how Clorox reacts with bodily wastes.  It is used to wash down kennels.  It not only cleans, it kills the odor.

I've used it to "neutralize" rotten lobster bait.  It pops, fizzes, smokes and generates a tremendous amount of heat.

You're lucky to have any sphincter left.

I don't think that was Chlorox.  Chlorox is just a 6% solution containing sodium hypochlorite. 

Having used 15-25% solutions in an industrial setting, I've never seen such a reaction with any organic material.  Even using powdered calcium hypochlorite, I've never seen such a reaction.

If you're seeing such a tremendous exothermic reaction, are you sure you weren't using hydrochloric acid?

Actually, I poured in a cup of the granulated pool chlorine.  The bait was in plastic barrels with the clamp on tops.  Didn't clamp the tops, just pressed them down.  The resulting mini explosions lifted the tops off some of them.

We did get potent liquid bleach from Borden/Remington chemical company to clean/kill off the "grass" that would grow on the end lines of our lobster pot trawls. 

Did that a couple of times 'til we realized that tying a length of line to the ****** block, then taking a couple of turns around the end line would strip the grass as we hauled the line in without producing the fumes that would irritate eyes and throats.
