No, I can see the irritation. It IS NJ. What would NYC do without NJ next door to commandeer?
NJ up there has become a major urban area, so it’s not just a swamp. As for the rest of NJ, it’s quite nice. Worst thing is the silly jug-handle turns.
It is. I am especially fond of Camden, because no matter where you are from (even Detroit or Cleveland), it allows you to go home feeling good about where you came from.
