I was trying to clean something in a bucket of bleach, but didn't have quite enough to cover it. I grabbed a bottle of toilet cleaner, assuming it was just expensive thick bleach, and poured a bunch in. After I started coughing I looked at the back of the bottle, it's active ingredient was hydrochloric acid.

Many bathroom cleaners are ammonia based. Mixing chlorine bleach with ammonia creates chlorine gas, the same stuff used as chemical weapons in WWI.

And damage from chlorine gas NEVER heals. That reduced lung capacity is for the rest of your now-shortened life.
