Some truths about NJ living

[jstar41]

wow.. I'm live in NJ and like it here.. once roads are fixed then we have smooth highways for the rest of the year.. if you hibernate in the winter you must not have much of a social life.. i go to lounges and bar.. even skiing sometimes.. and keep in mind i hate the cold.. but it only lasts for about 2-3months.. i worked in NYC and the commute was about 30 minutes.. sometimes there was traffic.. but more time for me to sleep on the way.. i take public transportation ;-)

you are the type of person who would say the cup is half way empty instead of half way full..

I agree we really only have two seasons, but I call them "too hot" and "too cold". Since I've lived here--13 years now, we're lucky if we get two or three weeks in the spring and fall where I think the temperature is ideal.

Yea, but then it's raining in the spring when the temperature is nice.

I don't mind the potholes as much as them repaving the same road they just paved the year prior.

Don't get me wrong..I love it here too : )) I just thought we could have some fun complaining about NJ : )) It is one of the most beautiful states...and most of us are just so use to those potholes now that we don't really even notice them anymore or we have there locations memorized and automatically drive around them or switch lanes : ))
