New York Rhode Island Massachusetts That entire New England Coast is sitting on what is the most dangerous Earthquake Faults in the planet. Its called the Ramapo Fault Line. Yes, it's true. Earthquakes do occur on a regular basis in New England. Notable examples of earthquakes that caused damage in New England and adjacent areas are: the earthquake off the coast of Cape Ann, MA in 1755; two earthquakes near Ossipee, NH in 1940; and an earthquake near New York City in 1884 Damaging earthquakes have occurred in nearly every eastern state, including New York. The largest were magnitude 5.2 earthquakes that occurred in 1737 and 1884. NEW YORK - Earthquakes are a natural disaster of the West Coast but they're a threat to the East Coast as well. It may not be that surprising that the Appalachian Range is not as 🌋 active as , the Cascade Range or the San Andrea Fault. But the New England Side quite active. So, maybe the writers of Family Guy have some kind of Crystal Ball that is foretelling the future that something volcanic will happen ; and it needs to be taken seriously
"That's more than I spent on all of that handsome cream" it's moments like this that make me feel like this show is completely ingenious with the way they Place their jokes
I kinda lost interest in Family Guy somewhere before the 10th season. It seemed to go to shit a lot quicker than The Simpsons or South Park. Shame cos it had good potential.
I had this happen to me in California when I was 17 looking for affordable car insurance. I went in to an insurance office in a strip mall and it looked completely legitimate. They made up a fake car insurance contract and everything. They said it was through “Bristol West insurance.” They even had a phone service for it or someone in their office pretending to be an insurance agent. A couple of months down the road, the place was GONE but the signage was still up. I got my down payment and monthly dues back after 2 years. They got arrested and sued. Lesson learned the hard way…
One thing I like about Peter is he said no immediately when the salesman suggested taking Lois’s jar of money, modern day family guy would just make Peter give it without hesitation and probably even sell Meg to someone for the extra cash
@@Robbie_Haruna right? At least before Peter actually gave a damn about Meg instead of shooting her the second she says hi. Modern family guy is good, but older family guy was a gem, actual funny jokes that land instead of gore and way too long filler cutaways

I don't watch it, but can bet to Lois's rainy-day fund this clip had more good jokes than the latest season had... okay overestimated the leatest three.
There are so many hilarious small details in this bit. The marketing guy had a normal sized kitchen refrigerator in his room and placed the jar of money in the exact same way as peter had it on his fridge. And the bit starts with a random unrelated segment about maths relationship lesbian to biology. Its comedic gold.

Everyone will have the last laugh because everyone will be dead. Maybe the primary insurer's relatives in Asia can cash in on that volcano insurance though.
