Now NYC Is Hit With An Earthquake!

[toobfreak]

NYC was just hit with a rare earthquake.

When it rains, it pours. It was 2.3 on the earthquake scale.

It was centered near Sleepy Hollow.

Gee, what else can go wrong, it is as if this were an omen for events there.

Maybe the earth will swallow the city next?

2.3?.....that dont even wake one up out here...

For those who may not know, millennia ago, an ancient continent named Appalachia or something like that, collided with our east coast and added on to the north American plate in part also causing much of the Appalachian mountain chain as it collided and pushed inward.

The Appalachian mountains are some of the oldest in the world and now mostly worn down to nubs from weathering.

Apparently it is still trying to move and as a result causes the occasional, small earthquake along the upper eastern seaboard.

Well, apparently it is noticeable when you never get earthquakes, but if you are going to get one, better 2.3 than 7.3.

I've registered larger farts than that.

I don't suppose it took out Gracie Mansion?

I really doubt anyone even felt it, and 1 minor earthquake really doesn't mean much, other than it happened where quakes are not known.

It was because the Founders are spinning in their graves over NYC having a Jihadist mayor.
