Update 17:17 UTC : Max. intensity 4JMA, thats not damaging (preliminary report)
Update 17:20 UTC : Tsunami advisory for FUKUSHIMA
Update 17:23 UTC : The epicenter is luckily hundreds of kms out of the coast

Strange, I didn't get an email about it from the USGS.

It was 200 miles plus off shore....

The only thing most modern day zombies care about is if the internet/restaurants/stores/banks will be operating/open (in their immediate area of the world) and of course if new movies and other forms for mindrot will keep flowing. Other than that the average moron does not give a flying fuck if gazillions of gallons of contaminated water will be flushed into the Pacific by this natural disaster.

just another day for them it seems

hmmmm....

oh no :(

It is weird ... just to pull it out for others who aren't readers:

"If Japanese stories are to be believed, the aquatic giants, which usually live more than 3,000 feet below the surface and away from human eyes, come up to the surface and beach themselves as a prequake warning bell."

Email just came in. Must be slow today.

Yeah, but they have earthquakes there more often than I eat pizza so it shouldn't come as a surprise.

Not 7.3's.

And a typhoon is sort of on the way. Fucking great.:Oh crap

Oarfish are coming up in SoCal. Hope I make it to Japan before the big one hits here. Oh wait. :1orglaugh

Too scary...

Scary as hell!

No damage report yet.

the earth is pissed

Mother Nature can be THE biggest terrorist

And I don't think entrepreneurs will realized how they treat mother nature from their greediness. (not in general)

'tsunami warning was issued for Iwate, Ibaraki, Chiba, and Fukushima Prefectures in Japan after a quake hit off the coast on Saturday morning.

1-meter tsunami is expected to make landfall around 1:40 p.m. Friday. '

Holy shit man :(

Damn, that's a heavy earthquake, I hope this is not the beginning of a new earthquake/tsunami/natural disaster frenzy. :\

Don't mind the ore fish.

Also, a 1 meter tsunami sounds harmless, but a mass of water at that size coming in from the ocean can do damage, move cars, break a lot of stuff, and so on.

business as usual, just more news now.

relax..

Needs to be bigger for them to issue more then a warning according ot the news.

isn't the concern with japan, aftershocks? so if it has the energy for 7, it could have the energy for more?

Scary shit,we are on the fault line..only a matter of time
