One icky catastrophe can easily turn into a hilarious party story or top-ick of parent-to-parent chatter. The Clorox® Ick-tionary captures the icky every day and over-the-top situations that everyone can relate to; from circumstances surrounding the unpleasantness of life’s #1’s and #2’s (and sometimes #3’s) to things like applesauce on the ceiling (how?). This online, interactive forum at www.icktionary.com officially brings together the new language of mess, including how to conquer and laugh about them, all brought to you by ick survivors and parents who have been there and cleaned that.

As a parent I discover something icky just about every day in my house, car or on a piece of clothing.  There is really no escaping it.  The ick level varies from little pieces of torn up paper that just annoy the heck out of me to messy areas around the toilet bowls from toddlers who just aren't that careful to the nasty black spots on the kitchen floor that always turn up the day after we've mopped.  In fact I've come up with a name for the mystery spots I find all of the kitchen counter, table and floor.  I call them "stickygooitis".    The most common culprits of "stickygooitis" at our house are often spilled juice and wet candy.

I submitted the word "stickygooitis" to the new CloroxIck-tionary.  The Ick-tionary was created to help name all of the messes Clorox has been helping us clean up over the years.   I'm sure you can relate to my dark mystery spots and probably have many a mess of your own to share with Clorox.  Head over to the Clorox Ick-tionary to see the collection.   You may get a little grossed out.   (I'm thankful I've never had to deal with "Foop").   I promise though you'll be in for a laugh and it's great to know we're not alone in these things.  You can also share you own word with Clorox and even better find the Clorox products that will help clean up the mess.
