A beautiful island in the English Channel, not a state of the USA. The commander of the British forces during the last attempted invasion of Jersey by the French was given an area of land in America as gift for winning the 'Battle of Jersey'. He named this land 'New Jersey' in honour of the island he fought to protect. Well known for it's occupation during WW2 by the german forces, and famous for it's own breed of cattle and potatoes.
Man bieau p'tit Jerri ('My beautiful little Jersey' in Jerriais/Jersey French)

English company: "...and that's £45 including VAT"
Jersey resident: "VAT is not chargeable to Jersey, i'll be paying less for that thankyou!"
English company: "oh sorry I didn't realise you lived there, how very lucky of you! here, have these goods at a cheaper price"

The original Jersey, an island in the English Channel and what many people call NEW Jersey, which is a state in America. The same thing with York and New York, presumably...
Jersey is an island that's in the English channel. New Jersey is a state in America

Why do you think New Jersey is full of trash? Is it because we have 8 million residents, we have beaches, and forests? Is it because Red Man, Queen latifah, Derek Jeter, Kevin Jonas and a lot of other famous people are from here. Is it because your scared to go to Camden, the nation's most dangerous city? Is it because you can't afford to live in our rich area's like Bergen County? Maybe it's because you've only seen the outskirts of North Jersey? Maybe it's because you've never been to LBI?
Hater: New Jersey is filled with trash.

Me: Well if your so secure with where your from than why do you feel the need to make up lies about other places that you've never been to?
