Most traumatizing experience on PS that did not involve Pokemon or other users?

While I was shitposting on showdown today, my dog managed to turn on the stove and almost burned down the house.

well I had a traumatic experience a little while ago. I made a python script that would play a battle against itself on pokemon showdown. seems fine right. It would make a random move, say something like "ez" or "your so bad" in chat, then alt tab to the other side and repeat. I decided to give each sides the most fat stall team I came across and then went on a walk and I came back to see the game going to turn 200 and not a single side had taken a KO. I decided "well I'll go to sleep and in the morning surely they'll be done". I wake up and check on the game and to my horror, one of the bots managed to click off the battle, open a chat room, and spend the past 4 hours spamming "you suck" and "ligma"

that traumatized me pretty bad ;-;
