Warehouse holding 1000 cans of surströmming burns to the ground, insert punch line here

A warehouse in Sweden holding 1000 cans of surströmming burned to the ground last week. No people were injured. The cans of surströmming, already prone to violent decompression under normal conditions, exploded over a period of six hours. Some of them turned into projectiles and shot through the air.

No information on what effect this will have on the supply of surströmming ice cream. I knew you were wondering.

He occasionally appears on the Windows Dev Docs Twitter account to tell stories which convey no useful information.
