an olive oil tasting on Skid Row Explanation: An example of something really unsafe. Skid Row is the largest population of homeless people in the US, so doing something fancy that "rich" people do, like an olive oil tasting, would be dangerous. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 mins (2020-05-21 13:16:00 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Skid Row is capitalized because it is an "official" place of sorts. It's formally known by that name. As for why it would be dangerous, I think it might help to picture a stereotypical oil-tasting. A bunch of well-dressed, rich people gathered around wonderful food. Now picture that next to hundreds a people who've been homeless for...well, sometimes their whole lives! Not a safe situation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skid_Row,_Los_Angeles |
