Ignoring InstructionsWhen 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?

Not the eyes!I found a dust remover can, compressed air and such. After getting the safety tab off I gave it a little spray then became giddy imagining what fun I could have with it. I shook it a bunch, then sprayed my sister in the face. Good thing she covered her eyes. The next day, I read the warning lable on the back out of boredom.
WARNING:
DO NOT SHAKE CAN.
AVOID EYE CONTACT.
AVOID SKIN CONTACT.
AVOID INHILATION.
So I guess her complaining about a slight burning sensation makes sense. At least it wasn't permanent. How was I supposed to know it wasn't just air in there? (I never told her about the discovery of the warning label)
