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?

13 years old, electronics lesson...
"Make sure you always put the soldering iron back in the holder."

Screw this, thinks I, I'll be picking it up again in a matter of seconds. It is wise, in these instances, to look at the soldering iron while picking it up.

I actually had it poised over my circuit board before I realised that I was holding it by the wrong end. Then the heat hit me. Had burns for a week.
