re: 7.3 magnitude earthquake off California coast

You first.

Why should others do homework on your claims?

Ahh yeah. The BIG one! Right. Now I remember!

I think he assumed you were giving the recent earthquake the nickname of The Big One instead of knowing about the fault line

quote:

This is literally what this fault line and the following earthquake are called. Are you intentionally this obtuse or born this dull?

Maybe if you have a conversation with someone other than yourself, this would be more productive. Nobody east of the Mississippi remembers the names of fault lines outside of maybe New Madrid or San Andreas. Good grief, come up for air sometime.

And before the 1906 San Francisco quake I don’t keep track of named events.

That you're an insufferable prick? Ok, feel good about that if you wish.

Your reply was off the rails retarded. I suggest you go back to it and reread and figure out where the hell you went sideways. Check back any time.

No it isn't, you're daft AF and wrong. Stop wasting time if this is the best you can do.

Damn. 7.3 isn’t small.

---

It is not but it’s not earth shattering either!
If it’s 7.9 and above inland near towns and cities, ok….but off the coast……nah!

I was talking about a common fault and you got confused

---

Bullshite. Quit trying to rewrite thread history and crawfish out of YOUR confusion.

No mention of any specific fault was brought up by me. YOU dropped some random info on a 324 yr old quake which wasn't germane to the discussion. Stick to the issue at hand, and things will be fine. If you want to play the "well, ACKSHUALLY..." card, and interject things which have and could happen, not related to the 7.0 event, fine. But state that in your reply.

Bruh you commented on me talking about a fault that you were wrong on in an earthquake thread

You were born dumb and haven’t grown out of it

You have reading comprehension problems. I see that now. I didn't do any such thing. YOU bumbled into the thread on page 3, after I had already been replying to the OP. Your 1st post was some inane comment about if it were bigger... to which I replied with saying when Fukushima (9.0) happened, I didn't recall the West coast getting devastated.

Then you went off on some twisted half-baked tangent about the 1700 tsunami which NO ONE was talking about and assumed the rest of us were caught up with the conversation you where having in your own head.

There is no fault line named THE BIG ONE. So, you're laughably wrong there. Know your shite or STFU.

And no, there is no quake called 'THE BIG ONE' either. That's not how seismology works.

I never mentioned any faults, fault systems or tectonic anything. That was all in your head. Then YOU pretended that you HAD named one, when in fact, you did no such thing.

Your love of the Halfling's leaf has clearly f'd up your head.

Here's what you said - Once the big one hits in Oregon, it’s gonna be bad for Oregon, California, and maybe Japan (tsunami).

Why would a big quake by Oregon be bad for Japan if a big quake in Japan wasn't bad for Oregon? Sure, it COULD, but there's always going to be factors which come into play, none of which you even pretended to address.


The quake occurred on the sparsely populated northern coast of California in a seismically complex area known as the Mendocino Triple Junction. It is where three tectonic plates meet and the Northwest’s Cascadia subduction zone and California’s San Andreas Fault system meet. The quake itself occurred on the Mendocino fault zone.
