EARTHQUAKERS REPRESENT
Holy macaroni, kids. I'm less than 40 km away from the epicentre of a magnitude 5.5 earthquake. Now, really, considering that that's less than one thousandth of the shaking force of the earthquake in Chile, not too impressive. BUT LIKE HOLY SHIT DUDE!
Pictures tossed across rooms, cracks opening in walls, I was watching this huge mirror we have and it was fucking undulating for a good fifteen seconds... nobody got hurt badly, though. Just some poor kid who got the pavement shaken out from under him. He's fine, though. I did a quick run around the neighbourhood to make sure everyone is all right.
That's what's important.
ETA: LOL TORONTO: The big video they're playing on CBC is a video somebody took... of the water in a fishtank sloshing a little bit.
ETA AGAIN: LOL NEIGHBOURS: My uber-yuppie next-door is flipping the hell out about a 3-millimetre crack in a wall... while standing under her neighbour's chimney, which is hanging on by three bricks and a pint of mortar.
