Correcto

• 你们再这样胡闹下去，这次集体活动就直接取消，没有任何商量的余地。(If you keep fooling around like this, the group activity will be cancelled outright — there is no room for negotiation.)
• 他在正式答辩场合里竟然胡闹，故意说些不相关的废话来浪费时间，最终被评委当场批评并要求重新准备。(He actually acted irresponsibly during the formal defence, deliberately saying irrelevant nonsense to waste time, and was ultimately criticised on the spot by the panel and asked to prepare again.)

Incorrecto

• 胡闹 in place of 玩耍 when describing normal, harmless play among children — 胡闹 always implies disruptive or problematic behaviour, not innocent fun
