I tried to like DC. I really did. I've been here for the past 18 months on a temporary work assignment and I thought I could make the best of it.
Damn, I was wrong.
Anyone who doubts DC is still a small town should took a good look at its gay scene. JR's is laughable. Each time I went there I felt like I was amongst a sea of farm boys disguised as collar-popping prepsters. Cobalt has the ambiance of a club in Des Moines and Apex feels like a gay junior high school prom on crack. And Duplex Diner? Yikes! Is there really a need to wear your work badge at 10 p.m. at night? Oh right, of course there is! How else are we going to know to ask you about your low-paying government job?!
It's not just the bars/clubs, either. Parties, coffee shops, restaurants, galleries, museums- they're all a snooze. Quite frankly, this city is full of homos from small towns who somehow think their paper-pushing jobs have elevated them above the mere mortals.
Oh and this city is so damn racially segregated. That has really pissed me off…and I'm white!
Okay, so maybe I'm exaggerating a bit. I did meet a great group of friends that I hope to stay in touch with forever and I've had a healthy dating life here.
But 9 out of the 10 gay guys here have the personality of a box of rocks. You guys need to get your acts together. Seriously.
Good bye, DC. You suck. I can't wait to get back to NYC.
(thanks Bill and Lindsay)
