12:30 in the afternoon, my apartment:
Guy (knocks on door): tap tap tah tap tap.
Me (bleary eyed and in pajamas, opens door): What do you want?
Guy (nervously extends hand for shake): Hi, how are you today. I’m doing a social project and I’m supposed to find 200 friendly and non-violent people. I was wondering if I could take some time to talk with you today. Are you friendly and non-violent people?
Me (narrows eyes): We’re busy.
Guy: Oh! So sorry to bother you, I’ll be on my way now.
Me (slams door): Soliciting bastards.
The boy (laughing): Wasn’t that a bit harsh?
Me: Did you want to talk to him? I didn’t think so.

Hey, we had a guy come to our door and say very nearly the same thing. Turns out he was scoping our neighborhood with a pal. both had done previous jail time for thefts. cops picked em both up but couldnt hold them on anything.
just thought i would let you know.
i found your site googling “friendly and non-violent” his words.
