Yeah, that was a silly remark, but you won’t fair nearly as well as you seem to think-
San Andreas Scenario
In the earthquake scenario with the greatest impact to the region, a magnitude 7.8 on the San Andreas Fault (similar to the 1906 earthquake), approximately 198,700 households will be displaced from 68,900 uninhabitable buildings, with $28.4 billion in direct residential damages. Approximately 35% of the displaced households (69,600) will be in San Francisco; San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties will also have large numbers of displaced households (42,200 and 47,200 respectively). In San Francisco, this number represents just over 20% of total households; in San Mateo County this is approximately 16% of households, but in more populated Santa Clara County these 47,200 households represent 7.8% of all households. Effects are much less severe for counties farther from the fault: in Solano, Contra Costa, and Napa Counties 1% or fewer households are anticipated to be displaced (0.5%, 1%, and 0.6%, respectively).
Hayward Scenario
In an East Bay fault earthquake, a magnitude 7.0 on the North and South segments of the Hayward Fault, the overall region-wide numbers will be slightly lower than those for the M7.8 San Andreas event, but distributed differently across the region. In total, approximately 145,000 households will be displaced from 55,100 uninhabitable residential buildings, with $20.9 billion in damages to those residential buildings. Alameda will have the most displaced households, 75,500 (52% of total displaced households in the region, representing approximately 14% of total households in Alameda County). Santa Clara and San Francisco Counties will each have approximately 15% of the region’s total displaced households each (22,600 households, 3.8% of the county’s total households, and 22,200 households, 6.4% of the county’s total households, respectively). Napa County will have approximately 500 displaced households, or about 1% of the county’s total households, and Sonoma County will have approximately 0.5% of the county’s total households displaced, or about 1,000 households.

The archipelago nation east of Australia is attempting to evacuate all 11,000 people who live on Ambae Island to nearby Santo Island because of ongoing eruptions at the Manaro volcano, according to the Guardian. A state of emergency was declared and many people began having respiratory problems as the smoke and ash from the eruption filled the air, the report added. Evacuations were even more difficult because of heavy rain that triggered flooding and mudslides, the Guardian also said. Vanuatu’s leaders

Well be glad you don't live on this island esp . if you are like a dumb ass liberal who never takes warning signs. Those are the dumb sob's who get caught in the disaster cause they thought it was oh so fake or not gonna happen, or the twenty other excuses they dream up to deny it.

"Dumb ass liberal"? The dumb assess live in trailer parks in the middle of Tornado Alley and the Hurricanes along the Gulf Coast which are annual events.
As for Earthquakes, CA and especially the Bay Area have strict building and fire codes to protect lives and property when the Big One occurs. And most of us have a enough food, water, first aid and camping gear to keep us for weeks.
