Zolton’s Facebook Pranks on Cleaning Supply Companies

Zolton’s Facebook Pranks on Cleaning Supply Companies

I originally wrote this piece for MediaShower.com, for use on the late, great comedy site ZuG.com. Text and images published here with permission.

The world is a filthy place. And I’m not just talking about the gaps under our refrigerators, or Mike Rowe’s favorite hangouts, or ninety-nine-point-nine-nine percent of the internet. I mean everything. Dirt and muck and dust build up faster than we can clean it — and once we finally have cleaned it up, it’s right back again. Like a boomerang. Or chlamydia. Or Mike Rowe.

How to stem the tide of filth and keep oneself squeaky clean? That’s what I aimed to find out, from some of the world’s leading dirt-busters (who aren’t named Mike Rowe). Read on for my findings — and my actual posts on the companies’ Facebook pages. It’s a dirty job — and who else would do those for you?

(Oh, hush. Smartass.)
