Earthquake/Anyone feel that?

sure a 5-6 quake makes news, but people don't freak out.

After they report it, the stations go right back to whatever was happening.

Now if there was 4" of snow in Newport Beach, that would be worth paying to see.

IT DOESN'T HAPPEN HERE ALL THE TIME

Some people in my building felt it, but I did not. I guess I was too engrossed in my work.

8th Floor Office Building in DC, Chinatown.

Definitely contemplated my own mortality there for a minute. Building was completely moving all over the place. Crazy.

People around here are definitely freaking out. Most of the buildings have been evacuated. Metro shut down.

Was hearing a bit from folks downtown who said it was pretty crazy. An earthquake of that magnitude was definitely too aggressive for my first experience.

Right. But we all live on the east freaking coast, of course we are going to go nuts when we get a big quake... it doesn't happen. In fact, most significant weather events even if they are somewhat routine (blizzards, hurricanes) cause people to freak out and get excited.

The fact that you even bothered to come on the thread to pull out your dick and show us its bigger cause you live in the earthquake capital of the world is ridiculous.

Me too, I was at chipotle getting some grub and missed the whole thing. Apparently the office was shaking for those in my building though.

Most people were relieved that there was no mushroom cloud...

Not really. The entire West Coast would be freaking out if they got hit by a category 5 hurricane.

The entire East Coast would be freaking too, a category 5 is ridiculous. Maybe you meant a category 3?
 
East coast buildings aren't equipped for quakes like the ones in Cali, either.
