Why do you think it is one never hears of anyone spontaneously combusting anymore?

Alien intervention?  Better healthcare?  Corporate lobbying?  Maybe it was a ruse in the first place...

Whatever the reason, it's been plaguing me for all of an hour or so.
I've nothing worthwhile to put here.

We have the Internet and so we aren't plugged up with blood and shit and semen and bile until we blow up because we fling it at each other in sticky little bombs regularly.

Because despite,popular opinion, we are actually in a period of Global Cooling.  It makes spontaneous combusting a bit more challenging.

I'm inclined to think it's because people have less inner conflict now-a-days.

Waffles - That article is far more helpful than anything I found and I thank you, but I still can't find documentation of any recent cases, which now flabbergasts me more as I know people who have tried that form of dieting.  Maybe there was one in one of the article links, but I'll have to make an ccount for that, but I'm not making an account for anything hungover at 7:30 in the morning, so I'll get back to that.
On a side note, I will now urge everyone I hate to try ketosis dieting.

Also, I will stay away from Nigel unless I desire firey death.  Which I might, someday.
I've nothing worthwhile to put here.

Didn't they find a connection between so-called "spontaneous" combustion and Entertainment Tonight co-anchor Mary Hart's voice?  Something about the pitch or something made people watching burst into flames.  I'm sure I read that somewhere.

Because it turned out to be bullshit.  Some "scientists" figured it out.  These are the same sorts of assholes that fucked up Loch Ness and similar shit.  I hate them, and want to throw them in the choppy grindy burny thing.

If it's bullshit... then my Great Aunt Gertrude didn't spontaneously combust?
