And how do I know this you do this? Because the Liberty Science Center is THE most visited science center in the metro-area. BUT, you'll sit there and just say: "oh the Queens science center is more recognized"

only by you sir, only by you.
Good points on queens

Argue on emotions lol.

Im asking a single simple question how is new jersey more culturally relevant than the boroughs

Your giving me the light bulb and all this stuff that doesnt even associate with jersey. Everything i posted is culturally connected to the boroughs and are world renown

Even if the liberty science center is more visited, thats just one thing. And in know way is that something that the tristate even recognizes let alone the united states

Jersey is not coming through with enough heat. Its funny. The thread was over with the bronx-hip hop,yankees let alone the other boroughs

No, lol, that's something KONY doesn't recognize. Funny thing is, when I was hopping from base-to-base, there were guys that were as knowledgeable on NJ as they were on NY. Only difference was that they knew (Yanks of course) but everything else was Manhattan-ish.

ie. Wall Street, Empire State Bldg, etc.

You're basically just letting NJ win this one.

2. San Diego Zoo is bigger and better. And whether or not the Bronx Zoo is a world class venue, people only go there to look at wild animals just like people do at six flags wild safari. And if that's considered one of The Bronx top "world class venues" then your just proving my point the the Bronx can't compare to NNJ.

3. I never knew about the Queens science center.. But it obviously still exist and exerts culture, that I"M aware of. How does the Liberty Science Center in Jersey City serve any less of a culture importance?
1. Never said jersey didnt have any, just not more than the boroughs. The five boroughs birthed ya whole culture anyway from accent to anything else is nyc and philly spill over. Thats why im laughing at jersey thinking its a bigger influence

2. San diego zoo does not exist within jersey last time i checked. Speak for your own state. The bx zoo is the biggest in thenorth east/tristate and is the biggest metro zoo in the states. Im not worried about the san diego zoo. The fact that you compare a nyc landmark to a sub park in six flags tells me jersey aint really saying anything

3. Ok i'll give you that

Jeesh, it's like talking to a wall.

Hip hop is a culture, mambo which was also created in the bronx is culture, you know that thing people listen to, even your state. Springsteen and bon jovi are not cultures they are artist

And yes nj which lacks a culture of its own is a variation of new york and philly culture. And you know this man lmao
