Supposed to break the noodles in half and drop them in the water. :I That way they're completely submerged.
But yesh, noodles can burn. There's a ramen box thing you can get called Yakisoba, and the instructions specifically say that if you don't pour the water to the fill line, your noodles might ignite and burn. They're delicious, so it's worth the risk.

Those are some pretty awesome mishaps.
One time in 6th grade my class was on an overnight field trip to live on an old ship for the duration. It went fine for my class, but as for the other class going on that trip, one of the guys assigned to make breakfast in the galley was apparently not too experienced in cooking. He was supposed to put salt in the stew he was making.
He mixed teaspoon and cup.

And...
I once tried making rice, nothing special. I added so much stuff and I cooked it in such a way, that I got myself a fine Risotto. :]

I cooked a frozen pizza once
Forgot to take the cardboard off the bottom
I'm surprised it didn't catch fire, but the crust didn't cook at all.
I also tried cooking chicken wings in the microwave. Not recommended.
Oh, and the time I tried reheating my Tim Hortons coffee and burned the cup. That was a joy.
I'm a man living by myself so i'll likely come up with a few more of these.. X3

Cooking frozen hot wings in the microwave is sooo much lower quality. Most of the time, they're slimier if you cook them in the microwave rather than the oven.
Always have your pizza sitting on top of something, not just right on top of the bars of the rack in your oven. The pizza can sink through the bars and make a gooey mess in your oven. Seen it on the internet a few times.

If the Yakisoba ramen is any clue, I'm guessing that dry noodles will ignite when exposed to excessive heat.

That actually almost happened to me when I was cooking a corn dog once. :I It didn't explode but it did mess up the corn dog.
I once left a cookie in the microwave I was reheating it so it would be soft and gooey again turns out I left it in for too long because I got distracted and the smoke alarms started going off there was no fire just a smokey cookie. ovO
My cooking turns out good usually 70% of the time the other 30% can sometimes have odd results.

If you've ever put peanut butter on your toast immediately after it comes out of the toaster, you know that peanut butter tastes even better when melted.
Now, melt some peanut butter in the microwave, but only for like... 3 seconds. Mix it with jelly, put it between two slices of bread, and you have an amazing peanut butter jelly sandwich.
If you try to melt it for too long, it'll burn and smell really weird like burnedness and pickles and mustard.

That actually makes me wonder if melted peanut butter on an apple is better then normal peanut butter on it, I bet it is.
So I learned you should never ever put poptarts in the microwave, it turned the inside of the poptart into cherry flavored glue that refused to come off your teeth it took some time to get my teeth clean again after that and I'm still unsure as to why it turned into glue. :I

A microwave heats something from the inside out, hence how it cooks popcorn and can explode lasagna and hot dogs.
Meanwhile, a toaster heats it from the outside in, which tends to let you make the outside of bread crispy without burning the inside.
Normally, the stuff inside the poptart isn't exposed to a lot of heat because the outside part takes most of the heat.

Yup, I already knew that it heats things from the inside out I just didn't expect it to have that kind of effect on the poptart. There was just no way of me knowing that poptarts would turn into glue when heated from the inside out as most things similar to them tend to melt instead. X3 It wasn't gooey glue either it was already slightly solid and sticky at the same time. Kind of like jolly rancher candy.

Maybe your stomach just has problems with semi-raw meat.
And yesh, but I didn't expect a short time in the microwave to actually do some real cooking. I just wanted it warm, not cooked. It's hard to explain. My brain is derp.

I can't seem to flip eggs properly...
ever get one to stick to the ceiling?
I was dual-wielding spatulas while flipping an egg in one pan and a pancake in the other
I somehow managed to stick both the ceiling simultaneously

Well this one time....
But really, I left a hotdog in one of those 7-Eleven super-microwaves for a minute... It was pretty much liquified and the box was on fire >A<

Me and some friends were popping a bag of popcorn in a basement microwave which was brand new. While we were playing some video games, all we hear is *pop* *pop* *BANG*. We all go to see what happened, the source of the bang... the spinning dish shattered into 4 pieces. o.O

I done it again!
Same microwave, different food.
Ricepudding! I heated it so it would be warm. I hear a loud "thud" from the kitchen and ricepudding all over the microwave... took me a while to clean it up... most likely will never get it clean but what the bacon

That's like putting sweetener in your coffee instead of sugar. :x
I actually remember doing this in my favorite diner one day. My waitress watched me do this and somehow must have known I wouldn't like it. the dialog before I even tried the coffee:
Her-"I'll get you another coffee"
me-'Why?"
her-"You'll see"*goes for coffee pot*
I took a sip, and realized that was the most revolting thing i've ever had.
she looked at me with that "I told you so" look

...Delissio pizza.
Lets put it this way. It tasted like Sweetie Belle's toast.
:x
let's try basic pepperoni pizza, and let's not forget to take the cardboard off the bottom this time :)
