Hmm. I see.

Yeah, I try to keep our kitchen clean, but my roomate just tosses his dishes in the sink. Maybe one day I'll just put them all on his bed while he's at work....

Naaaahhh. It's not very bad. I don't mind a messy house (like papers and boxes everywhere), but a dirty house (with rotting stuff everywhere) is not cool at all.
 
nasty .. i'm ALWAYS cleaning my apartment and my girlfriend messes it up.. She's been saying for 2 months now that she's going to clean the bedroom and it doesn't get done.. I can't wait for her to get the @!&*# out .. (which is HOPEFULLY soon)
 
We cleaned up my father-in-law's place about 4 years ago after he had lived there about 10 years. He was a 2-pack-a-day smoker. We used about a gallon of ammonia cut by 50% with water and it did a tremendous job at getting the place cleaned up.
 
when i shared an apartment with 2 guys couple of years ago, i was the dirtiest one, although friends say i am anal about being clean

needless to say, our place was sparkling clean *shudder*
 
So are you saying, the counter did not have that smell... and when your bf approach it with some cleaning agent, it released the fumes to defend itself?
 
My apartment and dorm room when I had roommates was always sanitary, but not necessarily clean. There was always a mess, but nothing funky that smelled bad.
 
That's really bad, but he shouldn't mix cleaning products like that. The mix is probably what smelled like poop.

7 months from now, tell him to just spray some 409 on there and let it soak for awhile. If it starts to dry, spray some more on (huh, huh, I said moron). After it soaks, there should be no scrubbing required.

Yeah.. I was thinking about how I could have made some kind of deadly gas and fallen over dead.
 
Least he took the initiative. Too bad women can't do the same for their cars. The passenger's seat IS NOT a place to put empty bottles & cans, receipts, etc.
 
First this thread: Counter-tops smelling like poop and then Seinfeld on TV tonight was about the valet parking attendent who made Jerry's BMW smell like B.O. What next?
