What are some examples of how rock layers can become disturbed?

This could happen, for instance, if feldspar became too absorbed with work and took hornblende for granted, and schist, seeking to drive a wedge between hornblende and feldspar, made a series of unfortunate and tactless posts on hornblende's Rockbook wall.
