"Hardly a soul is still alive, who remembers the Boston Molassacre of January 1919."
"As the alien's mysterious ray swept over the inert row of McDonald's ice cream machines, they all suddenly erupted into action, releasing several years' worth of pent-up unproduced softserve, burying the staff and unfortunate customers in a molassacre of sweet freezing goo."

The Boston Molassacre
The Great Molasses Flood, also known as the Boston Molassacre, was an industrial accident in 1919 where molasses flooded parts of Boston after a tank full of the stuff fell over.
Even 100 years after The Boston Molassacre, the city of Boston continues to be one of the stickiest cities in the world.
