I always thought "The Tens" was a reference to the zeitgeist, the decade we live in. But recently, I've heard the Loin referred to as "The Tenders" or "The Tends." Was this a tenderblog the whole time?
I’ve seen those signpost banners talking about the “Livin’ In the Ten”, referring to the Tenderloin. I think those are evil and whoever approved them needs to be fired. “The Tens” refers to where I usually score on IQ tests. I hope this answers your question.
I kid you not, but the dream I had last night had you in it, and you made my right eye bleed!
Mouthy woman.

Hey the Tens, I figure you to be an expert since you blew off your friends to go to a wine bar your last night in SF before moving to LA for the summer. What are your favorite wine bars in the city?
That’s funny that I would go to a wine bar the night before I had a final, but anyway… I’ve only really been to two. Hotel Biron and CAV. Of the two, I like Hotel Biron better. I think CAV has good sweet potato fries if I remember correctly.
Are you really performing at Nob Hill Theater at 7pm on Friday? Isn't that a naked people's club? I didn't have time to read your ENTIRE blog (because I have children to pretend to like) but the first two pages are kinda cool. You're funny. It reminds me of me.
I am not funny, at all. No, I’m not really performing at Nob Hill Theater this Friday. However, if you or anyone else promises to show up and tip well, I am definitely open to it. I have watched your video about seventy-hundred times in the last two days. Good shit. I like you, but I do, but I don’t.
Hey The Tens
We live in the same city. There are numerous bars that serve beer, gin & tonics and whiskey.
I'm puzzled as to why we've not been out on the lash and gotten into some memorable or amusing scrapes as of yet.
I know your mates are too busy with camping, and are overly concerned with French presses and fava beans, but I somehow don't think that's your scene.
Fuck that noise. You, Me, a bunch of beers and some top-shelf liquor, and the crazy that is SF... I'm guessing we're looking at blog gold.
I'm just saying...
We should go out on the piss mate. Or at least let me know when you go camping next so I can tag along and smack a bear in the face.

I’m down, definitely. Perhaps Mission Bar when Chupa is working? You don’t want me on your side if we are getting into scrapes. I plan on hiding under tables. Luckily, I lived in your homeland for a year, so we can talk about things like your favourite colours and whatnot.
i'll be there friday the 13th... where should we meet?
Probably not in a cabin by a lake.

Hey The Tens,
You seem incredibly good looking, smart, and hilarious from what I can tell. And you're right, you're friends seem like a bunch of assholes. Anyway, what I wanted to ask was, when you play for the Giants next year, what song will you come out to when you come up to bat?
Sincerely,
The Tens
That’s a great question, The Tens. You seem good looking, smart, and hilarious yourself. My answer is that I would come out to “Snakes For the Divine” by High on Fire. It’s an 8 minute 24 second song and I would make them play the whole thing before I would step into the batter’s box. By the way, I’ll hook you up with some tickets next year. Also, it’s “your friends” not “you’re friends”, you stupid cunt.
Thanks for the question,
The Tens
reneeisokay replied to your link: Ask me questions, seriously. Do you think misanthropy can be funneled into a livelihood apart from the loath-able and self-identifiable category, “The Working Poor”? If so, hire me?
Dear Reneeisokay,
I obviously love people, so I can’t speak from personal experience. However, I think if you pursue a career in stand-up comedy, dictatorship, or Wall Street, you will find a path to success. I am available as a pool boy once you’ve arrived.
-The Tens
Have you ever ridden a Segway?
Do I look like a bitch?
will you be my accomplice? you know, for the bank robberies.
I will not agree to such a thing. That would be illegal. (Yes, I’m totally down. I’ll drive the getaway car. I’ve already made plans. Let me know when you’re ready.)

Missed Connections: To the prostitute peeing on Polk Street between Ellis & Eddy
When I saw you squatting in the middle of the street, I thought, no, she can’t be peeing there. But you were. And when you saw me, you were kind enough to smile and wave. When recounting this tale to a friend, she asked if I had waved back and when I told her I didn’t, she pointed out how rude that was of me and suggested this Missed Connection. So please, lady of the night, consider this post an apology, a wave back, and a smile.
