There are about 500,000 earthquakes a year, and about 100,000 of these cause tremors that can be felt on the surface. That means there's practically an earthquake every minute, and most of these are clustered in the various regions that find themselves on active fault lines.
Just tell your friends there will be a magnitude 5 or 6 earthquake in Los Angeles (be sure not to specify when), that there will be a magnitude 6 or greater earthquake in the next two weeks (just don't mention where), and that an earthquake will hit southern California in the next 48 hours (just don't say how strong)...and you will never be wrong.
