California and Earthquakes Debate

Ah, you can see on this map that the San Diego area the earthquake risk is much lower in San Diego than in my former hometown, Orange, which is further north.

Makes sense

Staying off-topic, San Diego is pretty cool. I visited the USS Midway when I was six, it was awesome. I was going to go to a Padres game vs. my Dodgers, but it didn’t happen, thanks China.

Oh really? There was a 5.4 (at the epicenter which was about 30 minutes away) when I was 5. I still remember it, I was in the locker room of the local public pool, the whole room shook like crazy

OC is great, especially since the beach for me is just a bike ride away.

And you’d be surprised by the amount of people who don’t know how to swim.

I think we all take swimming for granted because most of us learned but the people who can’t swim and are stupid enough to go in the water, well, I have no sympathy for them

I guess that’s one viewpoint. To me, it’s always hilarious when some tourist family arrives at the beach expecting Hawaii temperatures, and they don’t expect the water to be less than 60 degrees fahrenheit, and for us Californians, that’s hella cold.

What the best thing in California? It’s not the beach. It’s not the weather. It’s not the nature.

It’s the Mexican food!

If you somehow end up in Huntington Beach, you have to go to this restaurant for the best Mexican food you have ever tasted.

What I would recommend:

Chicken quesadillas
Enchiladas
FREAKING CHIPS AND GUACAMOLE OH LORD
Fish tacos (of course)
Any type of burrito

What I would not recommend:

Beef quesadillas (very oily)
Carnitas (tend to be dry)
Carne Asada Fries (if you plan to do takeout)

I would get anything there. I haven’t tried several of their menu items, but I think it would taste good.

You got that right lol

And San Antonio.

I love how every state has at least a minor risk somewhere

Some are so weird and do low risk but all of them have it
