You know that it's called "Great Adventure," not "Six Flags."
You know what a "jug handle" is.
You know that this is the only "New..." state that doesn't require "NEW" to identify it (like ...Mexico, ...York,...Hampshire (doesn't work, does it)?
You only go to New York City for day trips, and you only call it "The City."
You know that people from the 609 area code are "a little different."

Jon whats wrong with the people from 609? I still dont understand it. I get most of them however i think your version is a North Jersey version. I have never been on 33 or 9 in my life. However most of them apply to me. PA does suck! Another one to add...you refer to people from Massachusetts as "Massholes". You know youre from jersey when you get pulled over you get pulled over by the WHOLE towns police squad! You know youre from jersey when you go to any other state and order a pizza, and it SUCKS!

Everyone calls them Massholes. Not just Jersey. ****, I hadn't heard them called that until I was in RI. And even people in Mass call others Massholes.

And how can you never have driven on 33 when you live not far from it?

I agree...born and raised in south jersey and can only relate to a few of your "quotes".

hey i from the 609 place you dont understand but heres another you go outa state lookin for a wawa and i can relate to like all them except the 33 and 9 realy never herd of them

hey add this one
you paint silver strips on your tractor. hmm cough cough not me lol :)

i can relate to some of them especially the "wawa is your home away from home" i go to college in wayne and there arent any friggen wawa's up there!!! me and like 5 or so of my friends were wawa deprived after a few weeks

i have no idea where 33 is, although i do where 9 is (the only place ive seen it is going to OC via the 34st bridge and goin into wildwood)

"You skip school to go to the beach " oh hell yea!

"The field you grew up playing in is now under development" this one hits home big time. in the last few months the huge field behind my grandfathers house (for anyone in vineland, its the field on the right on maple ave when your heading towards the soccer fields commin from brewster rd) theyre tearing down all the trees and what not and puttin 136 old ppls homes back there!! wtf we used to ride my go cart back there and play paintball back there now were SOL :x

"You think there’s no better shore than the Jersey shore" i beg to differ :-/

"You know that Jersey Freeze is the best place for ice cream" never heard of it, they dont have one in vineland, nor have i ever seen one...

"You remember Q104.3 and you know K-ROCK turned more commercial than MTV" i think you confused north and south jersey on that one bro :lol: K-ROCK is an NY station we get it up in wayne and it is/was Q102, which is no longer :(

"You stay far, far away from Ocean Grove" never heard of it....

"You’ve driven to gravity hill" never heard of this either...
