And before you say that's just a boomer thing, consider these comments from where I got it:

Where i live it's an area at high earthquake risk; they still teach kids to duck under the desks until the earthquake it's over; then evacuate.
Sheltering from bombs does feel a little dumb; unless it's for the same reasons as the earthquake: saving your head from the collapsing debris.
I only lived through a handful of earthquakes in the 10 years I lived in L.A. but maybe I should have gone through those drills in my midwestern school, because my reaction every single time wasn't, "oh shit, an earthquake, better get somewhere safe," it was, "oh cool! It's an earthquake! I wonder if it will be bad?" And then I just sat there like an idiot until it ended. Thankfully, it was never bad.
The only serious one i experienced happened in the morning; i was 13; i woke up and saw the fucking chandelier swinging; i started panickng, got my sister in my arms (5y), and started screaming for my dad an mum to get out (dad had already woken up because he felt something, but their bedroom only had floor lights) ; we were on the second floor, by the time we went down the roof had collapsed but the ceiling had held up fine ( only the half-rotten wooden frame broke, everything else held). I still have nightmares of waking up and seeing that chandelier swinging hard side to side.
