I once dropped....
...a toothpaste lid down my sink, which proceeded to get annoyingly jammed half way down on the way into the u-bend.

After placing a bucket under the unscrewable cap and removing it - I tried to 'flush' the lid through with lots of water.

Several minutes passed before, with the aid of a long knife, I was able to get it through the pipe and into the bucket.

Satisfied with my work, I promptly emptied the water from the bucket.

Into the sink.

Of which I hadn't put the u-bend cap back on.

hahahahahhaha
Now this is something I would do

I once was cooking potatoes. I got a colander to drain the water, put it on the worktop and poured the boiling contents in.

Yes, the worktop.

Ive done that.
As a student, I poured a bit of hot fat down the drain which solidified and blocked the u-bend. I found this out while doing the dishes later and the sink wouldnt drain.
I unscrewed the u-bend and collected the sink-full of manky water in a bucket, which I poured down the drain - which promptly pissed all over the cupboard under the sink.
Dammit.
