Of the three earthquakes I've experienced in my life, this was absolutely the biggest. But yes, I bet people who deal with earthquakes all the time would laugh.
The only earthquake I remember experiencing is the magnitude 5.5 quake in 2011, centered in Virginia, that damaged the top of the Washington Monument. I was still living in New York City then, and spent a little while assuring my co-workers that we didn't need to leave the building and stand around on Madison Avenue.
