"Lava from the Kilauea eruption has boiled away Hawaii's largest freshwater lake in just a matter of hours.

In a statement released on June 2, the U.S. Geological Survey explained that lava from the eruption's fissure 8 entered Green Lake and boiled its water away, sending a white plume high into the sky.

USGS tweeted that lava entered Green Lake at 10 AM local time. By 3PM, Hawaii County Fire Department confirmed that the lake had filled and that its water had evaporated." foxnews.com/science/2018/06/12/hawaii-volcano-kilauea-lava-boiled-away-big-islands-largest-freshwater-lake.html

    Before that Pele got virgins thrown in, but that probably wouldn't work today due to a shortage.

    Finally! A career path for incels!! No shortage of virgins there, and Pele being a Goddess, male virgins are probably more super effective!

    Naah. With a temper like that, she's definitely a lesbian.
