  1. Im a teenager and I once was in such a hurry because I was meeting my friends I forgot to switch the iron off and left it there on the ironing board with the hot metal bit down on the board. Well it wasn't a nice view when I came back luckily I had some money to buy a new ironing board but my pocket money was gone.


  2. well, us teens do lots of stupid things... i've done that (not the fire part thou.) - we're just not that bright. Okay, this one time I was havin a sleepover and we all snuck out to go t-p'ing but when we got there, we realized we didn't bring any toilet paper! It was hilariously stupid! Also, we just do things stupid... idk, plenty of things i've done.

  3. I leave the gas on the grill ..

    I've set bin on fire before, my mum asked me to empty ashtray and there was a cigerette that was still lit in it

  4. I'm far from being a teenager........but i have raised 2 boys (22 &19) MAN  can i tell you some stories !!!!!!

    ie

    putting roaches in microwave

    shaving the dog with my beard trimmer

    pouring vodka in the bottled water at church event

    putting cats in mailbox's (that was a surprise!!!)

    the list keep on going !!!!!!!!!

    the one thing i have come to realize is that the older i get the wiser i become, it is my conclusion that teenagers arnt  "Dumb, Stupid, or idiots" they are just young !!!

  5. Ha i'm a teenager with a silly story to tell.

    My mom was getting groceries, and i told her i'd stay in the carr with my dog, and she left the keys in with me, so i could turn uop the heat cause it was in the winter and that's jsut what i did, and she was a takeing a bit so then i went in to see what was taking her, but i accidently locked the door and locked my dog in with the keys and the heat up all the way

    Bad mistakeee

  6. Once when I was like 8(I've known how to use the microwave since I was like 4. I just wasn't able to reach it until I was like 6)we got dinner at KFC and I got one of those kid meal things. And it came with a fruit roll up. IT was cold when we got home. So I put it in the microwave. I knew that metal or anything like metal couldn't go in the microwave, but I wasn't thinking and then when I took it out, it was all melted. My mom got mad because the microwave smelled like burned aluminum foil for a week or two.

    Thats about it...I'm not allowed to grill anything(I'd probably have the house on fire). I only use the oven and the stove when my mom and or dad is home.

  7. That's not a "teenager" thing. I'm sick of people freaking thinking only teenagers do idiotic things.

    People like you p**s me the **** off.

  8. 1. My dad fried his brand new camera.. He got it shipped to his work, set it down beside his coffee.. (he works in a little applience shop that gets really busy.. and usually just him there).. anyways it got really busy with phones and customers and stuff and he ran to the back throw his coffee in the microvawe and didn't look at what he was doing and threw the camera in instead for 1 min 30 seconds on high.. yeah, it melted.. he had JUST taken it out of the the box like 20 min earlier

    2. Another camera story.. Well first I had a camera that went through a goood run... brought it to the bar, dropped it.. had it forever, surprised it still worked... then I left it in a cab so of course you cant get it back then.. Then I got a new one.. and we went out one night downtown, and I was carrying a  bunch of stuff, and my friend was like, here let me take some stuff, so i handed her my sunglasses and my camera.. and they got in another cab.. and when she got out of the cab she dropped it and didnt notice and the cab ran it over! I had just got it that morning.. luckily it still works, one of the buttons is just a little broken so i cant change modes or delete things  :( But i can take the card out and delete it from there... haha...wow was i ever MAD.

    2 cameras for my family in like 1 week, both brand new

    3. I used to work at Tim Hortons (a really popular coffee shop in canada.. theres like, thousands of them... like... more than starbucks in the states.... but not as nice as much cheaper.).. anyways.. we sold alot of like.. muffins, donuts, cookies, etc.,.. so the ovens are "quick ovens".. like a cross between a microwave and an oven.. it gets hot but it works like a microwave too so you can cook a donut in like 1 min 30. .. anyways.. there is this fan in the back, and the baker hadn't cleaned it properly for the night before, and with all the dust in the fan, it got really hot and caught on fire. Not a big fire, like, a little contained fire. My manager saw it and started screaming that she didn't know what to do and went and hid in her office and locked the door! we were like... great.. haha.. so one of the part times did the obvious and put it out with a fire extingisher.. like, really a manager should know not to lock themselves in the office when there is a fire.. at least go outside!

    4. And finally, I had some people over at my house one night, we got a little drunk and played basket ball, climbed a tree, normal stuff like that.. There was a car parked on the road and my firend was so hammered, he went and walked right up the hood of the car and stood on the roof... Ok, now you would think the drunk guy would be doing the stupid stuff right.. but he was just standing on a shut off car. My neighbour comes out of their house, doesnt even see him (i'll give them the benifit of the doubt that it was because it was too dark) and got in the car  and drove away! it happened really fast and my friend didnt think to jump down, didnt really even have time, so he's trying to balance on this car flying down the steet.. and the car didnt really even slow down at the corner, my firend kind of jump/got thrown off and did a tuck and roll...but how the driver didnt see him I dont know

    5. haha.. We have an inside joke when someone has to get something from their house that they can just open the car door and do a tuck-and-roll.. so that happened,, i was like, tuckandroll, tuck and rollllll! (I was driving an astro van with an empty space beside the rolling back door... ).. so my friend opens the door.. and shes like,, ok... slow down to ten, i'm gonna do it (the boulevard was grass).. so i got really close to the curb and slowed down to ten, but it was really fast so i slowed down to like... 2. So my friend jumps out and of course falls on her face (2 isnt THAT slow.. haha).. like stumbles.. and is like "OOOOOOOOOWWWWWW', totally hurt herself

    I'm like.. good thing we we'rent doing ten! She's like.. we werent doing ten? what were we doing?

    I'm like.. two.

    So she gets  back in the car and tells me to turn around and do 10 because she's doing it again. Really now, you hurt yourself at 2, why would you wanna do 10.

  9. i have TOO many stories to tell!

  10. well once i put metal in the microwave and it blew up... =[

  11. yeah lol when i was baby sitting when i was like 11 i blrw up the microwave because i tryed to boil an egg in it with the shell still on it lol ..

  12. I'm 19 and when i lived with my mom i set her oven on fire twice, we needed to have a new one each time, and its a good job i got home insurance in my house, luckily i aint bin that bad yet x

  13. One day my partner (he's 19) was in the kitchen cooking and next thing I know he yelled out to me, I walked into the kitchen and he was standing there looking terrified and there was a tea towel on the wooden floor burning. He just looked at me helplessly and asked what to do. I told him to put it in the sink (that had water and a couple of dishes in it) and he replied with 'but its one of mums pig tea towels' I just burst out laughing and picked it up and put it in the sink. He still tries to tell me that he didn't want to put it in the sink because of the dishes. Its probably not as funny to read as it was at the time lol.

  14. My partner does it almost every day! hehe must be a man thing!

  15. wow, ok im 13

    so i am banned from using any cooking appliance we own.

    i accidentally burnt off my little sisters eye brows when i turned the grille on.

    i blew up mac and cheese on the stove. (who knew you werent supposed to put all the ingredients in and boil it altogether)

    and i blew up a potato in the microwave!

    im just lucky i can still use the toaster

    (i have learned to love toast)

    ahhhh good times good times.

  16. I'm a 30 year old adult and ive done that twice this year.

  17. Don't need to be a teenager, my missus has done that a few times.

  18. Teenager no- father yes.. (who acts like he might as well be a teenager still)

    We went to a restaurant and he went to the men's room and he was gone for a while. i turned around to see him sitting @ another table eating soup.? I waved at him and he got up and said that he thought that was our table. however he was eating someone Else's soup?..

    Another time we were at a gas station and he paid and forgot to take the hose out of the gas tank and drove off. he looked in his rear view mirror to see a hose dragging behind the car with sparks flying everywhere!

    And just the other day. he was sleeping and forgot that he had left the stove on with some pork ribs boiling. he woke up to the entire house filled with black smoke. The water had all boiled away and the pork ribs were burnt to a crisp.

  19. this isnt a very funny story but i will tell you all the same.

    i went to make some toast the other day and when i put the toast in the toaster, a little toy car must've fallen in somehow or it could've already been in there (random i know) anyway, when my toast was toasting, i could smell a weird smell, like burning plastic. i didnt think anything of it until i went to get my toast out.....the toy car thing had melted plastic all over my toast ( =( ) and had melted all over the bottom of the toaster...oops...oh and another time i was getting food out of the oven and i dropped the tray on the floor. the carpet started burning....hehe i am now banned from cooking anything without the help from someone :P lol :)

  20. I am 18 years old, 19 in August and I still do that.

    Only the other week i was cooking a mini pizza that was meant to be cooked for 12 minutes. I forgot about it and went int he shower. Couldnt smell anything as i was in bathroom.

    Came downstairs about an hour later to find a pizza all shrivelled and black and burned, andthe kitchen filled with black smoke.

    My OtherHalf hasnt allowed me to cook since haha.

    Ohh, and I dropped my phone in some mud, and i picked uit up and then put it in the sink and started to wash it with soap and hot water...after about 30 seconds i realised i was washign my phone...and then screamed "shite" and tried to dry it. Im goign to blame that on pregnancy brain though haha

  21. I'm a teenager and the silliest thing I've ever done is believe my ex when he said he put a condom on (proof I'm not a s**t, i couldn't even look at 'it') anyway one of the best things in my life happened... i had my daughter. i stopped being a tearaway teen, matured and me and my partner are happily living together  in our own place.

  22. when i was 11, my friend came round for dinner and we were home alone. we went to the corner shop and got chocolate and i told her to melt it 30 seconds at a time so it woldnt burn. She put it on for 10 minutes and stopped it every 30 seconds but she soon forgot about it and 10 minutes later the house was covered in black smoke and the microwave had exploded. Meanwhile I was cooking the pasta and it wasnt going well. It hjad been on the stove 15 minutes and the water had gone cloudy and it just wasnt cooking. When we sat down to eat our raw pasta we saw that all along the wrong stove had been on! My mum came home and told me i could never cook dinner again!

  23. i forgot to turn off my straightener and completely melted my toothbrush, hairbrush, and 13 hair clips

  24. erm well it was wen i was 12...(16 now) i went 2 my m8s house and i really badly needed the loo and the lock on her loo didnt work so i went it only 2 see her dad on the loo

    ...... i can never let it down! ah cringe

  25. You should be glad that the worst thing your teenage son is doing is forgetting to shut off the grill.

  26. Hey,

    I have a few stories but this is the most recent one. I am 14 (15 in 2 days :D)

    My sister went to Nando's recently and came back with a voucher for a free meal. it has been signed on the back *** MANAGER. I was reading it for ages before asking my Mum what an *** MANAGER was. She looked at me with a weird expressions and was like "Assistant Manager, Eve?"

    I felt so stupid but funny at the same time lol

    Good question, by the way.
