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?

This is a QotW answer "WARNING: Do not touch metal plate when iron is turned on."
Yup. Swiftly ignored that one. One decidedly un-manly scream later, accompanied with the smell and intense pain of searing flesh, I learn why it's important to follow the instructions.
Had a black mark down my finger for weeks.
And I was 17.
I wonder how much longer I can stay alive.
Might start a book.
