When I was a child my dad and I decided to make a pizza from scratchish. The dough was pre made, but in had to be kneeded. I was tasked with kneeding the dough. I kept coating it and the counter with flour, but the dough just kept getting stickier and wetter. I had no idea what was happening so I just kept adding more. Turns out that my dad kept the large unlabeled mason jar of flour right next to the big unlabeled mason jar of powdered sugar. Pizza ended up tasting fine. It was really a good thing, because now, when I'm cooking in anyone else's kitchen, before I add an ingredient I taste it, and then call a friend over to taste it too. I now label every single ingredient I have as well. Another time I was following a really bad recipe for chicken korma. I should have known that it was a bad recipe, since it had poor measurements, and most of the instructions were "Just throw this in that" which as you know doesn't usually work well with creamy dishes. I ended up wasting some good chicken and like 4 million red onions. I know how to do it right now though.

On the topic of exploding glass One of my friends back in highschool was preheating my oven to make pizza, but he didn't check the oven first, so he didn't know that there was a pyrex dish in there. When he opened the oven and saw the dish, he thought "Oh no, I have to cool this off!" So he gets the sink running with cold water, and puts it in. It of course explodes into glass shards everywhere. He had no idea about the laws of thermodynamics. He was also a big time jerkass in general. He wouldn't even clean it up after. He said it wasn't his fault because he had no way of knowing that it would explode.
