i was in washington d.c in the holocaust museum and the 2011 5.8 earthquake happened. i legitimately thought it was a bomb bc there was smoke everywhere and the security guards were freaking the **** out.

that same day, while i was walking w/ my family to the parking garage, some guy literally 2 feet away from me gets out of a car with a gun and points it at the police. i thought i was going to be shot.
