[quote]Los Angeles, California (CNN) -- A magnitude 4.4 earthquake rattled Southern California early Tuesday morning, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
The quake's epicenter was 11 miles east-southeast of the Los Angeles Civic Center, the USGS reported. It struck at 4:04 a.m. PT (7:04 a.m. ET).
Although the temblor was centered 11 miles below the Earth's surface, according to USGS, the movement was enough to awaken some Southern Californians.[/quote]
:ohdear: So many earthquakes lately

Yeah the fucking earthquake definitely woke me up. Now too afraid to go back to sleep.
Sleep is for the weak, the earth just wanted to remind everyone that.

From twitter:
[quote]And the number for the day is 4! A 4.4 quake at 4:04 am on the 16th. By the way, 16 is 4x4.[/quote]
:tinfoil: The US Army is now testing their earthquake superweapons on their own citizens. :saddowns:
Is a 4.4 [i]really[/i] news?
[i]It's starting[/i]
How convenient. I was born 4:04 and I have 4 siblings. In 2004, I was in fourth grade, group 4.
It's a CONSPIRACY
that explains why i woke up and felt my bed rumbling. thought i was just having a motherfucking trippy dream.
I knew I wasn't fucking dreaming. If I recall, there was a small aftershock too. I dunno, I was still dead tired by the main one was over.
How many recent earthquakes does this make?

I happened to be awake then, tossing and turning. At first it jolted me pretty hard, but it was mostly small and over fast....that's what she said.

The earth's climaxing
Here in brazil there were more than 60 3.4 earthquakes on the northeast in the last week
What the fuck is wrong with earth
So fucking what, earthquakes of this magnitude happen [I]all the time[/I]. It's not special, and not newsworthy.
Oh, shit! My parents are on vacation there! :ohdear:

They slept through it, didn't realize it was such a small thing. We don't have earthquakes in Kansas, maybe every 60 years or so we get one from the New Madrid fault line.
NEWS FLASH!!! The Netherlands hit by magnitude 1.6, more at 11.
Good thing i live in seismic inactive Britain.
Wait...
