DC Shopping Completely Blows!

This is suppose to be some kind of metropolis right? Why is it every time I try to go shopping they sell nothing. The only thing this friggen place has to offer is crappy striped Nova Uniforms, tight white boy jeans, or 4xxx size tshirts. Its not like I'm looking for something diffifult. Just some summer clothes that don't make me look like some preppy chump, or a complete wigger. Including:

Jeans that don't make me look like some 12 year old japanese school boy. Why don't shorts go past your knees anymore? Last I checked men's thighs were not the sexiest part of the body. Who wears short shorts? Not I!

Shoes: Why is every shoe company making the ugliest shiniest shoes ever? Who wears this crap? Its either shiny plastic, or suade, the suade shoes look nice, but they last 3 weeks or 1 day of rain, then they are trash. Even the skate stores are bleak.

Belt: I've been looking for a new belt for god knows how long. Its sad the belt i got in the midwest for 10 dollars is better than any of the 40 dollar advertisement belts that I find here from banana republic or even hects. Why do all these belts have to print their huge name on the buckle? What am I a billboard?

Maybe I'm looking at the wrong places, but I've been to about every metro accessable mall in the dc/va/md area, and they are all the same. Gap, Banana, Express, Macey's(or lookalike), rinse and repeat. Then there's urban outfitter, where they overcharge your ass for some clothes that look like they were pulled out of someones closet. Why are old clothes in fasion? This is so lame. Who thought of this crap? If it looks old, I don't want to pay $50+ for it. I can go to salvation army and get some old clothes for $2.

Its funny that last year in the 20 minutes I spent shopping on my vaccation back to illinois I found sooo much stuff, that in hours upon hours of mall experiences I can't find anything. No wonder everyone in north virginia looks the same....there are only about 3 styles to choose from. I really miss shopping in the midwest. I never had to waste a whole saturday to find absolutely nothing. I could go to 2-3 stores in 1-2 hours and find a complete wardrobe and for half the price of anything here. I guess I'm going to be spending my shopping season's online from now on.
