3.3 doesn't count as an earthquake.

I agree, but I used to live in California. From that perspective, it is hysterical how a 2.5-3.5 earthquake makes news around here.

Lived in SoCal for a few years a long time ago. I know what you mean.

I actually thought this was my dog jumping up on the window sill at first until it lasted a few seconds too long. :lol:

Exactly. I didn't even feel it.

I felt this one at home today.
Like everyone says, it felt like a car bumping into the side of your house.

Not at all like the slow rolling shakes in California.

This is the first one I have felt in Texas.
Guns are like parachutes, if your ever in a situation that you need one and you dont have one, you'll probably never need one again.

Probably indistinguishable from the jets taking off.
