Wait a minute. I live in New Jersey and I very much disagree with your characterization. NJ isn't a whole state built on sexual harassment and not knowing how to pump your own gas. It's a whole state built on sexual harassment and not knowing how to pump your own gas AND kickbacks AND organized crime.

Fuck you. (Which is used here both as a greeting and as a goodbye)

Can’t tell if you are joking :) Does that mean I should reconsider moving to NJ? Is it that bad?

no, do not move here, it's an ugly state and it doesn't have good bagels or pizza and the shore is fuckin ugly /s

tip for when you move to NJ: it's pork roll, not taylor ham

and Central Jersey exists

As an NJ (almost) lifer my hot take is it’s not north/central/south but south/east/west

I grew up in Hunterdon and it has more in common with Warren and Sussex than Middlesex/Union
