It's a chicken/egg thing, I guess. We just have a different perspective. Do you really only do what the gubmint allows?
Actually nobody around here (Somerset County) speaks the dialect you infer from your post. Perhaps you have difficulty differentiating between television and reality.
And yes, if you think NJ is such an awful place to live, then please move yourself and the other ingrates like you, back from whence you came. We don't need you and we don't want you.
Nobody begged you to come to NJ and I have a feeling your kind wouldn't be missed.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm........
I like the South. The people there seem friendlier and in less of a hurry.
Cool thanks. Larry Campbell rocks.
I love Southern people. Some of the most charming folks you'll ever meet. I just don't like southern states enough to live there. But I love the people. Actually, I could see myself moving to the Nashville TN area at some point.
LMAO, you can throw THIS survey out with the garbage.
This is a shellsuit, btw. Wore one in white and silver when I was a youth: 
I think Flip may be one of those people who is only happy when he's miserable. He sure seems to find a lot to complain about and not much to commend. A sad way to go thru life, methinks.
That makes sense, given migration patterns.
Depends on the penalties for breaking the statues I choose to ignore. Would you exceed the speed limit on the freeway? Would you CCW in NJ?

Blue Jays,
Thank you for the advice, but I spell it as best I can to approximate how I hear it pronounced in this state. Unfortunately for me, it is not overdone humor but spite. I think NJ (there, I did not use "Joisey") could be a wonderful state, but its government has flushed it right down the tubes and made life for those of us living in it (by choice or otherwise) harder than it should be.
Yet, the good citizens of this state continue to vote for that government. If Corzine had promised to show up at every voters door and shoot them in the head, no, if he had promised to show up and throw gasoline on them and light the match personally, a majority of the good people of NJ still would have crawled to the polls on their hands and knees to pull the lever for this guy.

I never saw the Sopranoes, sorry.
I don't remember the men with vowels at the end of their names ever looking cheap when I was growing up. They always looked classy.
So you didn't mean scallop shells then?

It doesn't surprise me to learn you are one of David Icke's followers.
I actually believed the seashell bathing suit post! LOL. But I don't get it. That looks like a windbreaker. Is this one of those Sopranos things? It's funny, but it does seem like a lot of folks get their impressions of NJ from that dumb show. Sort of sad that conservatives, who supposedly know better than to believe media portrayals of reality, and who supposedly have a positive outlook, would be so foolish.
My mom wore a "shellsuit" all the time, but she called it "Beach Leisure Wear". LOL
That is small.
I've never heard ANYONE in NJ say Joisey. In what part of the state do they supposedly say it that way?
NJ sucks,left in 1973.
Flip is probably a good guy in person. I just don't understand why someone thinks it's ok to live someplace and trash it and the people who live there.
I have lived, worked and travelled in every state east of the Mississippi and quite a few west of it. Every state has positives, negatives, good people, bad people, blessings and curses. I would never take it upon myself to insult someones home state. It's low class and ignorant.
