Ah ha! Found the page. It was an earthquake.

Or maybe it was the aftershocks of ikkyu's manly nipple.

christ, ikkyu2- keep a rein on your nipple already, would you?

Felt more violent than 3.4 to me, but I'm in Berkeley and on the second floor in a stupid hippie-built office.

Stupid hippies and their jelly-kneed buildings! Lily-livered cowardly buildings just shake in their boots when there's even a hint of an earthquake!

It was pretty much just a big "BOOM!" here, and I did actually assume it was my neighbor's car bumping into the shared wall.

I'm getting quicker with the "Maybe it was an earthquake" reaction, though. I feel that's a vital part of becoming a northern Californian.

3.4 can be pretty violent. There was one in the Oakland area about a year ago that I felt in San Ramon - about 30-45 miles away.

We had a 4.3 I felt in Illinois back in 2004. It woke me up in the middle of the night. I heard the door from my back hallway into my kitchen rattling. I thought someone was trying to break in, but realized that the whole house was shaking. Then I went back to bed.

Man, I remember that youngergirl44. I was studying for my exams and had dozed off in bed. It felt like someone was physically shaking me and I bolted out of bed completely terrified. By the time I was actually awake, the earthquake had stopped and I felt like a total ass. Wasn't until the next morning that I read about it in the newspaper. Earthquakes aren't particularly high on the list of things to worry about in Chicago.

What a bunch of wimps! I lived in the San Fernando Valley within spitting distance of both the 1971 San Fernando Quake and the 1994 Northridge Quake. I have stories...
