cold, unfriendly, unapproachable, even mean.

I'm cold sometimes, though - that I will admit.

I don't know the specific block, but I don't think it's any worse than other parts of the city.

I've never heard any kind of notoriety about that block

It's West Philly- and 3 blocks from 52nd, which is a very busy intersection. I think if you go further south (Walnut/Chestnut/Spruce) it gets a little more rough Also, West Market Street is overshawdowed by the EL, and the last I was up there (maybe a year?) they were doing construction on the street underneath, so it was a mess.

Why do you ask?

Very often I get one of these remarks

"hey you look like some sorta musician"


or


"hey man,know where I can score a bag of weed?"


although female comments can run the from one end of the spectrum to the other.

but to answer the above yeah,I play guitar,no don't know where to get some weed but to women,hey I'll grow on you like a weed.

I think Sierra said this already, but it really depends upon the situation in which I meet them. I've been called intimidating, easy-going, party animal, analytical, and uncomplicated.

I guess I'm an oxymoron.

I'm friendly, but a bit on the shy side. I won't initiate a conversation with strangers, but once I'm comfortable, I'm a chatterbox. For some reason, the shyness sometimes translates as being a pushover. I'm not.

People can project all kinds of things on you that have nothing to do with who you really are.

We all have impressions! Even I don't always express 'em.

But when I occasionally get a flirty look from ladies I tend to feel better
