TIFU we had a case of black mold growing in between the bathroom tiles and I spent a couple of hours cleaning it with vinegar because I read it kills the mold. I washed it with water, and thinking all the vinegar went away I proceeded to clean it with bleach.
Big mistake, the remaining vinegar mixed with the bleach and now it smells toxic inside, my nose and throat itch, the fumes are unbreathable and even after a couple of hours ventilating it still smells toxic. My roommate can't shower until tomorrow and nobody can use the only bathroom with a shower. Fortunately there's another one with a toilet and a sink. But still, it's a fuck up, and I'm afraid the fumes won't be away by tomorrow morning. I already washed everything with water, again, including the sink and the walls.
TL;DR: Accidentally mixed vinegar with bleach while cleaning black mold in the bathroom and the fumes are toxic as hell. My roommate can't shower, nobody can use the bathroom
