I wasn't sure how I felt about my fellow man so I had to head out to the mall

Turns out I still dislike the huddled masses.

A few observations from the mall, not specific to any detestable average American trait.

- there is a style amongst tween/teen girls ...I don't know if they are considered "cool" but there are definitely a bunch of them...
I would describe it as Pippy Longstockings-Punk.
It's mismatched and punkish and calculatedly irreverent.
It's argyle socks, plaid slip-on Vans, a tartan skirt and striped shirt.
It's an " I don't give a shit about style" style.

Ok, whatever.

- many of the male mannequins in the sports oriented stores have pretty severe cases of gynomastia. ( for those of you not up on the nomenclature, that's man boobs)
no comment necessary it's funny all on it's own.

- they have a store called "all things Catholic"
at first I was highly offended because I went into the store and found several things catholic missing . one example?Not a single pedophile priest. Also? when I inquired at the counter about how I might go about buying my way into heaven I was asked to leave...
it wasn't until later that I realized that the point of the store was not to provide all things catholic but that all things provided would definitely be catholic.

my bad

Oh and Americans are fat and dress poorly.

that is all.
