Where were you when the 2010 Earthquake hit DC?
It is hard for all of us. I mean, just look at this picture of devastation from Gaithersburg:
Take a moment to share your story of shock in the comment section below. Here are some samples from BYT contributors.
Libby: I was on my couch downstairs because I was too drunk to make it to my bedroom. I thought it was the government.
Cale: I bravely avoided being engulfed by the rapidly approaching zig-zag shaped crevasse by stepping to the left. Just talkin’ bout continental drift y’all!
Mike A: I remember dreaming that someone was moving furniture in my apartment. I woke up to ask "Who moved that grandfather clock?" I don't have a grandfather clock.
Bradley: I was passed out from drinking several bottles of champagne and a carton of ice cream sandwiches at Svetlana's birthday party.
Svetlana: I don't remember
Gan: Truly terrible. The only way my earthquaked body could handle the shock of the natural disaster was to continue sleeping.
Who will help the Hipsters???

God loves a cheerful giver.
I was pulling out some PBR's I apparently decided to take home as souvenirs from last night's event and I remember thinking, "THIS I get smited for?"
Between BYT's tweet and this post, I'm dying over here.
I was clutching onto Mayumi, my dakimakura. I called in sick to work to comfort her.
my cat was, like, totally scared. or he was an asshole and wanted to climb on my face at 5 am. i'm not sure which.
I wish I was doing it, cause that would have been awesome.
7/16 NEVER FORGET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
