I knew a "wino" who only drank Lysol. We called him the Lysol man. I have one of his shirts. At any rate, he took pride that he never paid for it, always snuck into some cleaning closet and stole it. I tried it once, he said he usually cut it 1/2 and 1/2, but gave me 1/3 Lysol, 2/3 water. He said he was sorry all he could swipe that day was scented, it left an aftertaste. It was a different kind of high from anything else.

He claimed his shit didn't stink. I took him and another fellow to the VA hospital in Chillicothe one day, they stayed a month, but neither stayed sober. I bumped into someone a few years ago who told me he saw the Lysol man's grave out at the VA cemetery here in Dayton.

The winos used to swipe a bag of ice from the carryout, and try to sell it. Price would go down as the ice melted on them.
