The more advanced side of New Jersey, and the side that is more influenced by New York. In North Jersey, the Yankees/Mets, Knicks/Nets, & Devils/Rangers/Islanders get more press then in South Jersey (We're not all Yankee fans, FYI). Also, there is a stereotype that we all have New York Accents, which is wrong. Most of us don't have an accent at all, and those that do live VERY close to New York.
There are Diners everywhere, true, but New Jersey is the Diner state, so that can't really be blamed on North NJ.

In North Jersey:
- We read the Star Ledger, not the Asbury Park Press.
- We use SPRINKLES, not Jimmies.
- We eat SUBS, not Hoagies.
- Channel 4 is NBC. Not 3.
- None of us have any f*cking idea what a Wawa is.
- We really don't give a shit how the Phillies do.
- Atlantic City isn't sentimental to us.

Aug 11 Word of the Day
A phrase to describe someone who is cognitively degenerating. Synonym of "going off the deep end". Can have varying degrees of severity.
Reference to the song "Hey You" by Pink Floyd. The line "and the worms ate into his brain" makes no sense in an otherwise linear and literal narration throughout the lyrics.

"My boyfriend has a total case of brain worms. He told me the cat was bugged so the Feds could listen in on us having sex..."
or
"You totally stumbled over that entire sentence. Can't speak English all of a sudden? What, do you have brain worms?"

The northern region of New Jersey. Provides easy access to NYC. If you're from North Jersey as opposed to South Jersey, you are much cooler by comparison.

basically the families of people who work in new york. about 87 times better then south jersey.not everyone is a guido and there and there really arent that many. actually most people in north jersey hate guidos and the bad rep they give us. if you live in north jersey you most likely go to the city extreamly often and know it almost as well as any newyorker. and yes we talk normally however a slight jersey accent can slip out when angry.i have lived in north jersey my entire life and have never said joisey, i go to diners 24/7, really dislike the mall (sorry guys) and i greatly dislike guidos.
welcome to suberbia its pretty rad here

a land of contrast, where the factories and poor towns are about 15 miles south of Manhattan,where the middle class towns are about 5-20 miles west of Manhattan, and where The Rich Towns entire Bergen, Passaic, Western Essex,a dn north Union County. Also where there are at least 1 mall close to your house that has stores like Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Cartier, and Burberry. If you could choose anywhere to liv in the world, choose North Jersey, Beacuse its got a beautiul landscape, is really rich, and has easy access to the largest city in the USA!
