The most trouble I ever got in growing up was after a phone bill from calling 1-900-740-JEDI (with permission) and didn't put the phone all the way back on the rocker.
It was supposed to time out after a minute or so of no interaction, but the bill showed the line was connected for over 60 at something like $0.75 a minute.
The worst part (to me) was that it didn't help me find Frog Rock. I found out a decade later when I ripped the disc to play in SCUMMVM that there was a defect with the CD that my 1x reader at the time probably couldn't handle.
