Stereotypes: We all live by malls, factories are everywhere, we apparently have an accent that we've never heard of before, we all are Italian and gel our hair, we are just a giant suburb of NY and Philly, we all smoke alot and we must come from Newark or Atlantic City because those are the only two NJ cities you know.
The Truth: I can't speak for all of NJ but I do live within 45 minutes of 3 malls, but what's so bad about that? Factories are only in Northeast Jersey that is real close to NYC, and they manufacture half the shit you buy, we have to put them somewhere. No one ever says "Joisey", we say Jurzee and the accent you think we have is more like a crushing combonation of Staten Island and Boston. Jersey Accents are more subtle and most people talk like they're from Philly or NY. We aren't all Italian, infact only 17% of NJ is Itailian but yeah I am Italian but there's nothing wrong with that, and no we don't all gel our hair or wear Gucci sunglasses. We are like a giant suburb of NY/Philly but with attitude, our own cities and towns, and a beach. And No we aren't all from Newark or AC,there a lot of towns in Jersey that I've never heard of before and I lived here for all my life.

Out-Of-Stater: New Jersey sucks.
Jersey Kid: Have you ever even been here?
Out-Of-Stater: Yeah I drove by Newark on my way to NYC
Jersey Kid: That's not the real New Jersey, that's like going to Compton and saying that you've seen all of California, or going to inner city Detroit and saying you've seen all of Michigan.

Get the New Jersey mug.by Jersey kid February 17, 2008
Get the mafia mug.I'm american and I know that London is the capital of England not vice versa. Most of us aren't idiots that's just a ignorant stereotype. But anyway London is basically the Manhattan of England. Extremely expensive, good eating, good shopping, history, etc. Basically it is a must see city.
Us "Yanks" aren't stupid or ignorant as the media makes us look. Give us a chance. Yes 97% of us know, London is the capital of England. If I asked a Englishmen what the capital of the state of Louisiana was, would he know? Maybe, maybe not the point is we both don't know a lot about each other's culture.

Get the honest mug.Largest city in NJ. Located in North Jersey, it has a suprisingly large and clean airport. Newark started out as a very industrial city and used to have a higher population. Now Newark is what you would call ghetto, not as bad Camden but still a high crime rate. I wish they would clean it up and stop the gang violence cause New Jersey is in need of a thriving metropolis.

Get the newark mug.A hurricane that struck the gulf coast in August, 2005. The city of New Orleans and the Mississippi coast were destroyed. Many people lost their lives, black, white, hispanic, asian, does it really matter? the point is the storm was horrible. People get caught up (Kanye West) and say "George Bush doesn't care about black people". Not only black people people lived in New Orleans. and I think a more accurate statement would be "George bush doesn't care about people." When people die and a city is lost why do people look at races and blame people? The point is innocent people died, R.I.P. New Orleans is like Atlantis once a thriving city now under water. Hopefully New Orleans will get back on its feet and thrive like it used to.
All races are equal. Hurricane Katrina wasn't racist, she killed anyone in her way, so don't be ignorant and say only black people died.
