Oh it's coming Sunday supposedly, but it still boring. We have them every year. But we also get mega snow storms and earthquakes too, so therefor we are much more awesome. All we need is a few volcanoes and we will be set.

LMAO :lol:

My girlfriend in NJ felt it. I'm down in FL right now, nothing down here. Still getting ready for Irene to hit

That was me throbbing in her. :thumbsup:

were you getting hit on by a porn star again?

Of course, just another day for me. :shrug:

I was driving into NYC through the Lincoln Tunnel and felt the tires vibrating in my car and just thought it was a rumble strip... I swerved back and forth a couple times thinking maybe they were on the yellow line and it didn't change. When I got into the city to where I was going people were saying an earthquake just happened. After I put 2 and 2 together I realized I was probably in one of the worst possible places for that to happen at the time lol.

there are buildings in DC older than the state of california. how well do you think those buildings do in Earthquakes?

Yep. Building's on the west coast are built to withstand earthquakes. Building's here are not AND most of the ones in DC are old as shit. My grandpa is a engineer and runs a property management company that manages a bunch of buildings in DC and he said they already got a ton of calls about cracks in foundations and walls. He'll be spending the rest of the week doing building inspections. He said a lot of buildings are going to be shut down.

I was working..Everyone I worked with felt it except for me and one other guy.. Hell who knows, maybe I did but it didnt register.. But as of now, didnt feel shit, and I want a refund. Im sure if I was near the epicenter I would have felt it. This is bullshit.. I didnt wig out, but some people did for sure.

I was laughing later because of the way 2 guys I work with were describing them feeling it, and one got all serious and told me it wasnt a laughing matter... Guy needed to lighten up..

And DAMNIT!!!! Not the post-it notes!!! Oh the humanity!!!!!
