Today, as I was on the couch taking a nap, it started violently shaking. I panicked and chased my family outside, convinced it was an earthquake. It was just the cat trapped inside the couch. FML

It's just one story of the string if FML moments my life is made of.

I thought you weren't supposed to go outside in the event of an earthquake?

I'm not from Missouri, I'm in Illinois. The location is waaayyy wrong. I'm actually about 3 hours away from Missouri.

Coincidentally, when there was an earthquake a few years ago, I thought it was just my cat under the bed!

OP, not to be asking too personal of a question, but what part of Illinois are you from?

South. Way down where there's more ears of corn than there are people

Oh okay, that makes more sense for an earthquake with some major plates down there. Here in the central part there isn't much worry for the earthquakes. Good thing to be prepared though!

Yeah, last big earthquake we had was in 2008 and I'm still skittish. It happened at four am and our house is built on 55gal drums so it was louder and shakier than it should have been

Why would you go outside during an earthquake?
