Earthquake Tremors Felt Across England And Wales Greatest In 25 Years |Sky News|UK News
Trust me any quakes we have in the UK are just a laughable embarrassment compared to yours.
If youre earthquakes are the equivilant of mile high rollercoasters with limitless loops, twists and gravity defying drops our quakes are a pleasant gentle ride on the teacups with your baby.
Even flowers survive our hurricanes and if we had volcano's old people would bathe in the 'lava' pools to open their pores.
We are shit at natural disasters
Was that the one caused by Enzo?
Paperlilies made a Youtube vid about it. Don't sleep on Paperlilies...
I'm an earthquake survivor. I'm still waiting for a TV crew to turn up and interview me.
Don't feel bad, in order to fit the requirements for interview you need to ideally be a middle aged, fat woman, intermittently sobbing and sighing with a wet dishevelled look and ideally some mud or soot on your face.Quote:

Remember behind every tragic moment is a great little bit of comedy just ideal for a 30 second slot :)
I feel cheated. Other natural disaster survivors get serious coverage on the news channels. We got nothing.Quote:

Earthquakes scare the shit outta me. Ever since I was a kid it has been drummed into my head by scientists, the gov't, school officials etc. that a catastrophic earthquake is going to strike where I live. If all goes according to plan, pretty much everyone here is fucked. Should be a good time.

Some people are so stupid they deserve bad things to happen to them :rolleyes::D
lmao. I'm actually planning on leaving as soon as I complete school. Transfering schools inter-provincially is a bitch. The 3 million other who live around here also don't seem to think its a big enough deal to constitute moving. Also, I live in one of the few parts of Canada that is not an icy wasteland in the winter and a swelting, mosquito-filled furnace in the summer. If it wasn't for the threat of imminent death and my own paranoia, it would be paradise.Quote:

Lazy, should have kept moving further south
The entire west coast is pretty much a hot-bed of earthquake activity, maybe they should've headed for the interior of the continent. The problem, in regards to earthquakes, here is that two plates are pushing up against one another, creating all kinds of pressure and tension, so the longer we go without getting an earthquake, the more violent and destructive it will be when it finally strikes.Quote:

The sheer weight of human mass would probably be so great that poor little old England would probably collapse in on itself and sink into the ground taking us all with it down to the depths of hell.
Best you guys went and left us in a nice cheery, safe and comfortable little land.
You can not out run mother nature.Nor out think her.
Excuse my language but "Katrina" was a Inbred motherless kunt of a Storm.The most stressing part is seeing the buildup in the media......You know It's coming and growing........But there is not s!!! you can do except RUUUN the opposite direction. Sitting through that was what my father used to call "The Pucker Factor" :-X:-X..........:D
Yeah, I'm amazed it didn't sink after we sent all that equipment and all those troops over there to fight the Nazi's for you. :DQuote:

i was too scared to even get out of bed and get my mobile(to call the ghost busters obviously)
until i heard man across the road shouting
what the fuck was that ? then i knew it was an earthquake so i jumped outta bed opened the window and had a conversation about it ]
then i phoned everyone who i know who lives in a 5 mile radius of me saying did u feel that ???????

What's funny though is how under prepared we are for any natural weather disasters.
A couple days of rain and a Welsh village will get completely wiped out.

Two or more consecutive days of sunshine and we have national hose pipe bans and have to share baths.
A night of snow will grind any UK city to a halt forcing schools, businesses and even hosptitals to close.
If we had your weather for just one month I think that would be enough to completely destroy the entire UK infrastructure and you Americans would have to come over and save us.
We are the worst nation at coping with bad weather in the world.
