I think that usually when glass food vessels explode it is caused by either thermal stress or some kind of impact stress. Sometimes, when performing some software updates in one’s small or home office, a toughened glass mug which has already been filled with a tea-based beverage, drunk completely, cooled at a natural pace, and left to rest on its custodian’s desk with an insulating layer of paper towel can explode forcefully outward from its radial center.

I learned this recently by performing that sequence of operations and experiencing the documented result after many years of performing those operations and not experiencing any violence.

Anyway, I don’t have a habit of taking photographs with a mobile phone and posting them on the Internet because I prefer experience over single-button-press documentation (corollary: I don’t see myself as a complete piece of shit human being) but this is slightly more justified due to the lack of understanding about what happened and the fact that nobody actually reads this site except for its author.

Disregardably, I have attached some images of what happened to this page.

My guesses as to what caused this are:

  • The glass was old.

  • I actually have 1 more guess but I won’t disclose it until I test it.
