Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

How crazy can they be listening to Philip Glass?

It's not the kind of crazy that leads to axe murdering. At least not yet....

Because books.

But they probably wouldn't murder you *at* the opera, megan. So there's that!

Well, it is in the Tenderloin!

Nestled between successful commercial areas and high priced residential areas, parts of the Tenderloin have historically resisted gentrification, maintaining a seedy character and reputation for crime. Squalid conditions, homelessness, crime, illegal drug trade, prostitution, liquor stores, and strip clubs give the neighborhood a seedy reputation.

The Tenderloin is a high crime neighborhood, particularly violent street crime such as robbery and aggravated assault. Seven of the top ten violent crime plots (out of 665 in the entire city as measured by the San Francisco Police Department) are adjacent plots in the Tenderloin and Sixth and Market area.

It's a group right? I think there's some safety in numbers. Go for it.

Well, I'd be going with this guy, but they generally all meet up at these types of things from what I can tell from their blogs. But I assume I would do the "let's meet at the theatre" thing.

My axe-murderer suspicions have killed the thread!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

My axe-murderer suspicions have killed the thread!

So that's what they mean by 'internet axe-murderer'.
