This is a question Ignoring Instructions

When I was small, a friend of mine waved a big plastic bottle at me and asked me if I "wanted some drinking yoghurt?" I pointed out the "do not drink" label, but no, he was convinced this was a big jug of a particularly strange, liquid yoghurt that was briefly popular in the 70s.

He was sick for hours, after consuming a suprisingly large quantity of washing liquid.

What instructions have you ignored?

Banned from Chemistry
The final straw was "Stop messing about", "don't light the ethanol", etc.

Me and Darrell, for t'was his name, decided to pour a bottle or two of ethanol over 4 desks and turn on the gas to the gas tap - NOT the bunsen, you understand..... We then lit the ethanol from the other side of these desks.

Oh how we laughed as the flames leapt from one end to the other.

Oh how we cringed as we remembered the gas tap thing that we'd done.

Oh how we stood open mouthed following the "woof" and the desk flames and the shooting gas tap and the fire alarm and the girl whos jumper we set alight...

We were summarily thrown out of Chemistry and banned - which was inconvenient as I wanted to do it at GCSE (funnily enough it turns out Chemistry's really hard and I'm glad I didn't take it now!)
