Real Life? Sort of.

What is it being proposed as an example of?

It's for a YKTTW I'm working on. Early 20th century psychic Edgar Cayce predicted California would suffer huge earthquakes and be swallowed by the ocean. He was fairly well-known, so it may have contributed to the development of the trope in popular culture. I think it's an interesting example and worth a mention.

I usually make an "Other" folder for weird stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else.

Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.

I'd call that Other, or Real Life.
