A common misconception of residents in New Jersey is the individuals on the Jersey Shore. People in New Jersey are commonly stereotyped as steroid poppin', hair spiked, orange douche-bags or for women extensions in hair, fake long nails, orange bitches. To your surprise, people from New Jersey happen to be normal human beings. The only areas with the New Jersey stereotype are in the Jersey Shore and most of those people are from New York or Philadelphia. The people who are from New Jersey and follow the stereotype are despised by the normal folk in New Jersey. Most of us do not speak with an accent, do not say "Joisey", pronounce the words "dog" and "talk" properly and are completely aware there is not a "w" in either of those words. If you do your research you will find that most of the people on the MTV reality show "Jersey Shore" are from New York. Trust me, whenever we see that New Jersey stereotype we too despise him and classify he/she as "Douche". To sum this all up, the stereotype is false. We are normal people. The only people who follow the stereotype are New Yorkers, Philadelphians, and the common anus.
- I have lived in New Jersey my entire life.
Person #1: I'm from New Jersey.
Person #2: No you're not!
Person #1: Yes I am...
Person #2: No, if you were you would have an accent and say "Joisey" HAHAHAHAHAH!
Person #1: Die, away from me...
Stereotype: Douche

Where I live. The greatest state in the nation, with the greatest hockey team in North America, the Devils. And the factories are only in the semi-circles around New York and Philadelphia-the rest is pure bliss. Plus, this state is home to one of the greatest universities in the world, Princeton University. NJ rules!!!
Typical moron: Yo dawg, Noo Jerzee's nuthin' but gross, yo!
A New Jerseyian: Umm...have you ever actually BEEN to New Jersey?

Best place in the U.S. People who are haters either haven't really been here or are just know-it-all's from the rest of the 49 states that can't compare. Take one step into Jersey and you're hooked- learn to drive or you aren't going to survive. And cut it out with all that "joisey" talk. People who use stereotypes gotta get a clue.
"You're from New Jersey? What exit?"

The best state in the Union.The land of diners,greenheads,and Soccer.Those who make fun of it are either jealous or have never been here and would prefer to live in whatever cornball state they're currently in.
-For the last time,NO ONE SAYS "JOISEY"!!OK?Not even people in north Jersey.Most of us have a Philadelphian sounding dialect.
-No mullets either,ok?
-Many of us love Soccer,and Jerseyans are the best Soccer players in the US.(Tim Howard,Claudio Reyna.Both play in England)
-Knock it off with the stupid toxic waste and turnpike jokes,they're both unfunny and incorrect.If you REALLY want to make a Jerseyan laugh ask us what our longest time staying in a diner was or something like that.
-"Jersey girls" do not look like cheap whores with 80's-looking hair.They are usually gorgeous Italian girls,however they sometimes smoke too much and should cut that out.
-NJ smells like leaves and trees,thats about it.
-Ok,there's some shitholes here,i'll admit.(like with any place).But most of the state is beautiful and it's a great place to live.
-Douchebags like Jay Leno need to stop with the corny NJ jokes before I make some South Jersey chick beat his ass.
-One of the few places you'll find people who are of half-Irish and half-Italian descent.

The first misconception other states have of New Jersey is that it "smells". Infact the only part of Jersey that may be a little rough on the nostrils is that of coming to the Lincoln Tunnel, since it is heavily populated in the surrounding areas with factories and marshes(which DO NOT home dead bodies).
Jersey is infact one of the wealthiest states in the country that people just can't help but moving to due to it's scenic portions and safe, quiet suburbs. Not to mention the fact that whichever end you choose to move to(North or South) you're in direct locations to two of the largest, bussling cities in the USA(Philadelphia & Manhatten). Not crossing out Central Jersey which is home to some of the most clean, friendliest beaches on the East Coast which has abundant tourism rates in the summer and hoppin' boardwalks.
All our residents in this state may seem very short fused, but hey...YOU try hearing a bunch of shit from bennies and other states sayin' how much you suck and your state is worthless and we'll see how you feel at the end of the day.
We hold it down here, infact i've lived here for 19 years of my life(and counting) and found upon visiting other states(such as Mass., Virginia, Nevada, Arizona, Maryland, Pennsylvania) that i MUCH rather live here for the rest of my life then in some economic wasteland and/or socially constipated place(yeah Virgina, I'M LOOKIN' AT YOU!).
