It's called joking around, Tara!
Well no one here appeared to think it was funny given their responses so it is a one sided joke. So not a very good one. No one finds it funny but you. I like the kind of jokes that are mutual. I do not joke around that we get more/stronger earthquakes than other places because the earthquakes are deadly and should be respected. People who freak out over smaller ones may not be used to it and therefore may not be prepared for it mentally or physically/survival kit/infrastructure if it does not happen often. For us it is a way of life. For others, not so much. I hope you understand that while poking fun at people who do not seem to share your fun. I think in this case it is more bragging and laughing at people rather than laughing with them. Something likewise I could never do in my case with our earthquakes.
Here in the US poking fun at other regions of the county is a national pastime, nothing malicious is intended.
