Maybe I am just difficult...but I don't know why I feel like gagging when I see that 'NJ Strong' sticker.

Not difficult, just unintelligent. There is no such thing as a NJ person. Or a NY person. All people are individuals and should be treated that way. If I randomly assembled 50 people representing each state in a room, you wouldn't have a retard's clue where anyone was from. Or perhaps that is precisely the type of clue you'd have.

I also find the NJ Strong campaign annoying. It was something our governor did to promote himself and waste taxpayer money. According to studies, that $25 million did nothing to help businesses down the shore. But the gov sure looked good, and that's all that really mattered.

As for NJ people being annoying, yeah, maybe sometimes. But at least we are real and will give you an honest answer. Maybe people from certain other areas are more polite, but they are phony and stupid. And I'm not just saying that, I have evidence.

I gag when I see Snooki barfing on the boardwalk and someone's dogs start licking it up. Gets me every time.

I agree with the comment that people from Jersey tend to speak their minds a little more freely. It was one of the first things I noticed about my new coworkers when I moved here a few years ago. Back in Nevada, when someone in the office had a problem my work everyone else would hear about it first and I'd be the last to know. Here, people are very direct and much more to the point. I prefer that approach.

not half as annoying as non or new residents coming to the NJ board and asking NJ residents if they think NJ residents are annoying.
