A very nice state to live in, as far as I'm concerned. To debunk some silly myths:

I don't go down the shore. Ewwww that hurt to write. I go to the beach. Only my relatives from philly call it the shore.
Boardwalks are crappy, skeevy places (With a few exceptions). I don't like them, and my beach doesn't even have them.
Um... Exit? What? I don't even know what mine is. We don't know things about people just based on their exit...what is that?
Ahhh... Guidos and guidettes... Thanks MTV! Seriously, in my entire school, they are probably about 5 people like that. We don't really notice them. They're just, like, Italian people, I guess. I dislike their fashion sense. New Jersey is diversified. There are just as many Irish, Germans, blacks, Indians, etc as Italians. I'm not a bit Italian!
Actually some of us DO call them hoagies. I think Northern NJ, influenced by NY, might call them subs. But...we don't in Central NJ.
We have pretty places and not so nice places, just like any other state.

We're a normal state! Why so many stereotypes? It makes me sad. I like my New Jersey with its good produce and my beach and yeah... You should visit beofre you make judgement!
Not True: New Jersey is just annoying land that gets between Philly, NY, and "the shore."

The place where New Yorkers come when they want to go to the beach.
New Yorker 1: Lets go to the beach!
New Yorker 2: Which one?
New yorker 1:The one in New Jersey!

What people outside of New Jersey think:

*We only eat pizza
* We are obnoxious and always get into fist fights
*We all live down the shore and if we don't we are living in the basement of a factory in the center of Jersey.
*The only thing we do is fist pump
*The girls are short and fat but the guys are tall and ripped
*We always say "Joisy"
* We are all rich
* It's like a cheep Italy
What we reely do:
*Just because we make the best pizza in the country doesnt meen that it's the only thing we eat ( New York's pizza has nothing on ours)
* We only get into fights if we need to. We are the ones who give money to bums in New York.
* Many of our houses are reely nice and most of us just go to the shore in the summer.
* NOT EVERYONE FIST PUMPS
* The girls are gorgeous and the men are hot
* WHERE DID PEOPLE COME UP THIS THIS AWFUL ACCENT. *The only thing that I saw which I would consider an accent would be cawfee. What else would we say? coughey?
* We have not so great parts of New Jersey and rich parts.
*We are one of the nicest states in the country
If you hate us so much than why do you watch the jersey shore every week? New Jersey is the best

The best place in America. There is a lot to say about New Jersey, some good, some bad. We are the most stereotyped state, stereotypes that are so untrue it's pathetic.

We say fuck a lot, but who gives a shit. We are proud.

We don't fuckin smell. We smell like trees not much else.
Sure Newark and Camden are messed up, but the rest of the state is all rich suburbia.

Sure there are douches and skanky girls, but that's only in seaside heights, which is a small 1 percent majority. And talk to those people, you At least get respect.

There's always a diner and a mall within Ten minites. It's the perfect life. I certainly cannot complain.

People say we are fast. The rest of America is just fucking slow. We like it that way.

before you go insulting our state, remember we repeatedly rank as one of the safest, smartest, and richest states in the US.

So keep your head up high Jersey. We are, and always will be, the best
New Jersey- the best fucking place in America

America's hairy, hemorrhoid-ridden asshole.

We're all embarrassed it's there, and we don't like to talk about. But we have to live with the fact it's just... there.
Douchebag from New Jersey: "Nah, Jersey's fucking great. Represent! We got 7-11's and, uh... I think Kevin Smith was born here! It's just jelly New Yorkers who hate us! We're fucking kings!"
Normal Human Being: "I literally just watched you scream and threaten to punch some kid in the face because she wouldn't loan you $10 for a pack of Salems and a can of Milwaukee's Best."

New Jersey is SCUM. In every possible way.

Home to some of the most dangerous overall cities in the country: Newark, Camden, Trenton, Paterson, etc.

Any so-called culture the state has is the SAME EXACT thing as NY's and Philly's..

Not all of it is industrialized, but mostly suburban. There is very little natural beauty left, though.

There's a shore? YAY!!!! No other states have that, right?? Gimme a break.

Yes, there is no school on Jewish holidays. Just goes to show how annoyingly liberal the state is.

The difference between NY and NJ? NJ is in the way.
The people of New Jersey love to think they're hot shit, when really they're full of it. And yes, I can say that, because I've lived here all my life.
