Let's see, how about doing tripod work using the mirror lockup equivalent (2 or 10 second delay), and forgetting to reset it, so that the next day when time is of the essence to capture the subject's pose at just the right moment so you can go and collect your Pulitzer, you press the shutter and realize you have 2 seconds to stare into a blackened viewfinder while your subject moves, grows old and dies. Or, forgetting to change the mode setting from continuous to single frame, and machine-gunning your last half-roll of Velvia through the camera?
