people get annoyed way too easily.

The stick figure family decals never bothered me in the least. It would look kind of sad, though, if it was just the mom with like 4 or 5 kids.

NJ is, can be, a tough place. As is the entire Metro area. It is not for everyone.

I worked with a guy in Manhattan who was from Georgia. He got eaten alive in NYC. Not necessarily because he was from Georgia, although it contributed, but because he wasn't tough enough to cut it.

You should leave as soon as possible, for your own sanity.

Also, stop posting on a message board full of people who disagree with you. You are not changing anyone's mind.

As if i have to listen to you. You don't even explain how he got 'eaten alive'. What wasn't he 'tough enough to cut'?

Right, because it is only "NJ Italian people" hating on Snooki. Are you kidding? She is a joke on a national level, with everyone from South Park to SNL making fun of that alcoholic Bumpit-head Oompa Loompa. She is popular because everybody loves a train wreck (see: Tan Mom).

It just seems like some people are a little too prideful and insecure at the same time? It was just my impression. I just got turned off.
Snooki, is that you?
