When I was still at the house my little sister (10) was hungry and not wanting to cook I told her to stick some chicken fingers in the microwave. I said, "Follow the insructions on the box, ok?" and so she runs off to cook it. A few minutes later I smell smoke. I rush to see whats up. It turns out she stuck them in the microwave, on high, for 11 mins.
Needless to say mom was pissed
Another time my cousins and I were staying up late one Friday the 13th (way back when). It was around 11pm and we were hungry so we cut on the fireplace, took out some wire hangers and decided we were gonna cook some hotdogs. We let the outside get nice and burnt (ok, so it was an accident) and when we bit into them it was cold as hell. So them my cousin tries to cook some cheese toast. Sticks it in the bottom part of the oven and forgets about it. A little while later we smell the smoke. Burnt cheese looks funny, even funnier on top of burnt bread. Pitch black.
