NJ worked hard to earn that reputation so deserved!
Look what they did they elected Murphy!!!!
Nj has allowed politicians to tax them to death and even vote for people who promise to raise their tax!
No other evidence is required, no defense can be mounted that would change NJ's reputation that coincides with Nj being last of lists of best places and first on lists of worst places.
A great big thanks to NJ voters!
It often isn't by many important metrics, though.
But what else would we expect from the resident angry conservative?
You are free to move to any Southern red paradise you'd like.
I feel like just about every New York City based TV show from Law and Order to Seinfeld has gotten a few digs in about New Jersey here and there over the years. What's funny though is how many wealthy Manhattanites maintain "weekend properties" out here from quaint 18th Century homes to huge horse farms. On the other hand, I probably dislike Hackensack, Bayonne, and Newark just as much as they do My neighbor to the south has a niece who lives in the city and she comes out to visit with her daughter. My oldest is about the same age so they met recently and hit it off rather well. It was cute to hear my little country mouse, born and raised in Hunterdon County talk with such excitement about her new friend that lives in New York City with all of her speculation and questions-"DO YOU THINK SHE'S EVER BEEN TO CENTRAL PARK DAD!?"
She's only been twice in her life, once to see the Radio City Christmas Spectacular when she was four, and again just this past Christmas at age seven (it was her younger sister's turn this time). That is one of the beautiful things about living in New Jersey. Though my girls will grow up here and learn to raise chickens, shoot pheasants, and catch catfish, they will also learn to appreciate the art and culture of the greatest city on earth which is barely an hour's drive away. She is a voracious reader and lover of the natural world so the New York Public Library and the Museum of Natural History are on the list for this summer.
For those who never have, it's a movie about "New Jersey's Only Superhero".
The gist of the story is that this bullied geek jumps out of a window after being set up by the mean kids, and he lands in an open drum of bubbling green toxic waste in the back of a truck and turns into this horrible looking but unbelievably strong creature who runs around fighting crime. He even falls in love with a blind girl who keeps tripping over things and falling flat on her face.
Of course I have!
I've met the director!
