I may have accidentally ingested some Windex after cleaning my microwave with it. 45 minutes after cleaning the microwave I nuke a frozen meal (or two) and eat. 10 minutes later, I feel a fart coming on... let's just say it wasn't a fart :eek:

And don't blame it on the Windex. You shit yourself, plain and simple.

I don't know about windex causing the squirts, but your toilet and underwear will be streak free!

Call the 800 number on the bottle. All my old friends at SCJ would get a kick out of your situation.

I highly doubt it was the Windex. (1) You wouldn't have had that much residue left over, (2) That residue wouldn't have touched the food, (3) At high temperatures such as the air in a microwave the alcohols should have evaporated and gone out the fan exhaust, (4) 10 minutes is too soon for effects.

I don't know if the ether or alcohols can cause diarrhea though. I would tend to doubt it, but I haven't looked into that either. I don't know if there has been any study on that effect. For what profit is it to a man if he eats the whole Windex, and loses his own bowls?

Windex can NOT cause that, because it specifically says on the bottle "STREAK FREE".

how much?

a cup? a quart?

if you ingested some residue, no, that won't do anything, it is psychological

at least you didn't ask someone to pull your finger. somehow that would have made it a little bit more embarassing

Windex contains ammonia. Ammonia fumes are used medically to awake someone from fainting or unwanted drowsiness.
So, it's more likely that breathing the fumes would cause such a reaction, instead of actually ingesting the liquid.
