I think we all have a few ideas about this -- cooking disasters, fistfights at the table, unexpected intestinal distress, political disputes, guests who discovered they couldn't stand each other for whatever reason (or maybe the opposite), times when everybody claimed they "weren't hungry" or whatever.
I will start off with a mild one. I made an impromptu visit one day with a friend probably too close to dinner time so our hostess insisted that we stay for dinner. As is often the case with unexpected guests, she made pasta. There wasn't much seasoning so she brought out the package of grated cheese. After a brief inspection, she said "just pick out the green bits. It's fine."
And that's what we did.

Got invited by a friend 35 years just after she got marroed ago and she made pasta. Horribly overcooked. Then she said, ok i am a bad cook, but i am better in bed... Not sure the husband agreed since they divorced soon after.

Not my personal experience but I remember my sister telling me about being invited to a newly-married friend's for dinner. His young wife overcooked the pasta and used her brand-new, wedding gift electric knife to cut a cake. That marriage didn't last very long either.
