After a while the man, believed to be in his early 40s, started to yell, but shocked passersby just stood and stared, the report said

But I just had to laugh.
I saw the photograph.

/Dozens of people spontaneously combust each year. It's just not that widely reported.

Well yeah, they are 20 years behind the rest of the world.

WAIT, there are still vinyl record stores in Sweden?

I'm sure there are hipsters in Sweden, too.

This is god smiting him for buying a LMFAO album.

Someone really needs to make a "HIPSTERS! HIPSTERS! HIPSTERS!" 'shop using the "LIBS! LIBS! LIBS!" guy.

Yeah, wax just isn't that popular.

Didn't know Spinal Tap had a new drummer.

What a WICKed way to die.

Wait, some people care what happens in Sweden?

Came here for a Spinal Tap reference, leaving satisfied.

Clearly, the Swedish media is trying to cover up yet another dragon attack.

If he had dual-wielded with heavy armor, the guy might have had a chance.

I thought time travel caused ice, not flames, unless the pedestrian hit 88 MPH.

"Spontaneous combustion
Scientific fact"

Actually, it's fire on the way out, ice coming back. Hollywood proved it.

Was it this guy?

He was so enthusiatic about having an old fashioned Viking funeral, he just couldn't wait. The only thing he forgot was the boat.
 
2011-11-21 02:14:54 PM
there are vinyl record stores in america too, subby. at least 5 that i can think of in my city and very likely more.

I guess he was...*sunglasses*...hot blooded!

/check it and see

Many people say that vinyl sounds far superior to other mediums.

I'm not one of those people.

Red Eye Records ftw.

Best service

The family has announced that they will be holding a candlelight vigil at a reasonably safe distance from his hospital bed.

Apparently vampires are a big problem in Sweden.

vudukungfu: What a WICKed way to die.

He's still alive, according to the article

The stunned crowed just stared as the burning man uttered "I wish you were here"
 
2011-11-21 02:28:18 PM
*GIS for "spontaneous human combustion"*..........WTF?
 
2011-11-21 02:29:27 PM
He just stopped in to buy a copy of "Wish You Were Here"

I think we can all agree, that's pretty f*cking metal.
 
2011-11-21 02:29:59 PM
He was reportedly singing "Wish you Were Here" but Pink Floyd.

Sweden is a weird place. Not bad weird. Just...weird. Curdled milk on cereal. Fish on everything. The "beaches" are slabs of grey rock that angle down into frigid choppy salt water.

Everyone was very friendly though.

Glad this is being more widely reported...

The Stealth Hippopotamus: Well yeah, they are 20 years behind the rest of the world.

Well, no, actually. Vinyl records are making a comeback. Audiophiles swear that high quality analogue recordings on vinyl have superior sound quality and fidelity than digital music.

JackieRabbit: Audiophiles swear that high quality analogue recordings on vinyl have superior sound quality and fidelity than digital music.

That's not surprising, considering that "audiophiles" are consistently wrong about everything.

DJs never stopped spinning them. Vinyl is still a thing for much club music in europe.

I'm guessing it was a 190 proof Aquavit accident. A couple of shots, a lot of spillage, a hipster clove cigarette and poof, instant auto-da-fé. He probably had it coming, heretical Lutheran.
