15-foot-high tidal wave of gooey destruction

ANNALS OF STRANGE DISASTER
Remembering the Great Molasses Flood
BY CAMILLE DODERO

The tale of the Great Boston Molasses Flood sounds like an urban legend. In 1919, a squat steel tank of molasses sitting low on the Boston Harbor waterfront exploded. Filled with more than 2.3 million gallons of the sticky substance, the seaside container burst, unleashing a 15-foot-high tidal wave of gooey destruction, killing 21 people, and devastating substantial parts of the North End.

Damnit, why does everyone hate kangaroos? But this is not the place to discuss it, feel free to start a new thread on that.

STOP TELLING PEOPLE TO START NEW THREADS, WE HAVE ENOUGH POINTLESS ONES ALREADY! (no pun intended)

apparently octavian missed the end of the world
So he was born after the world ended?

[Octavian]

Indeed, when did the world end? 1985?

[Corrosion]

2000, remember Y2K bug?

[Octavian]

Except that never actually managed to kill anyone. But let's all be friends and start a new thread about, "When did this world end and why aren't we burning and rotting right now?"

[Rayder]

Let's just used this thread.... when did the world end? Hmmm... 1922.

[Octavian]

1922? I thought it was 1944. Lot of bad stuff going on during that. D-day, Market Garden.
