When I was at university (circa 2005), I was at home during the day and decided to make a gourmet bowl of instant noodles. We didn't have a microwave (obvs) and I was cooking them with the requisite amount of water. Went upstairs for a quick spot of Command and Conquer Red Alert and became so absorbed in the game I forgot about the noodles.
I went downstairs after an hour because of the smoke alarm, to find a jet of smoke coming out of the pot. The pot was destroyed and my noodles vaporised, but fortunately, the house didn't go up in flames.
