When did New Jersey become cool?

[mr_rubino]

Heh. All those Northeasterners don't hate New Jersey enough to not clog the roads and fill the beaches every damned summer. New Jersey is often blamed for two equally disastrous things that actually come from Staten Island: the syringe tide, and guidos.
Yeah, after you're done making daily commute on the Parkway a nightmare from buyin up crap under less sales tax, how bout you go right back to where you came from. Freakin' tourists.

If you haven't seen it the latest south park episode was really entertaining. Jersey became cool when Bravo and MTV began pimping out realty TV series and saddly the Shore is wildly popular. I will always hod NJ dearly in my heart because of atlantic city the vegas of the east and its where NYC dumps all thier trash. MUFF CABBAGE.

People still watch that show?
(Ok, that was unfair.)

If the OP wants to talk about fake t.v. then fine.

If the OP has a hate filled bundle of shame against Kentucky or New Jersey, fine.

But when you compare New Jersey to Kentucky, you are way the fuck out of line in my book.

LOL! Just kidding.

I have never heard of, nor do I understand, what you mean by a comparison on this one.

Cool people exist in every city.

It's a fact.

In the South, we see Kentucky as the amalgamation of all of the worst qualities of the South. Here, we're of the feeling: Shit, I may be from the South, but I'm not from Kentucky!" My old roommate was from Kentucky. His uncle brewed moonshine in his bathtub. This is not an uncommon practice in that part of the state. I'm merely wondering if there is a fair comparison. Also, I don't have anything against Kentucky or people from there, I merely acknowledge that it's...different there.

As a man from Kentucky, I have not done the following

1.Made moonshine
2.gone out in public without shoes on
3.fucked any of my cousins/sisters

Your room mate was probably from Eastern Kentucky. And all they know down there is coal mining and meth.

That's South Jersey you're thinking of. (Booyah.)

No, 'Jersey sucks balls.

 

[enriel]

New Jersey is cool? Since when?

 

[wehrp3nguin]

Seriously, anyone who hates NJ hasn't ever had Taylor ham or a fried hot dog...or ever been to a NJ diner.

Judge not a state by its greasey Italian haircuts, but by its greasey Italian sausages, also the "Fat Sandwiches" at Rutgers.

 

[Reyalsfeihc]

At what point did it become acceptable to be from New Jersey? Wasn't it always one of 'those' states? Isn't New Jersey for the North like Kentucky is for the South?

-note: I'm not mocking everyone from New Jersey, but I'm making fun of the show and the culture following it.

Ya I don't know where you got that from but I'm pretty sure New Jersey is still referred to as a cesspool. (No offense to people who live there, I once did too.)

 

[octafish]

All this hate for New Jersey. The Boss is from Jersey. I'd be guessing 1973 when he released his first album was when New Jersey became cool.

 

[Altorin]

Jay and Silent Bob

 

[UltraParanoia]

Fuck New Jersey.

I've wanted to set the whole goddamn state on fire every time I've had to go there.

 

[SimuLord]

I lost my virginity in New Jersey. So for me NJ became cool in the summer of 1994.

 

[RatRace123]

New Jersey isn't cool.
It's only more notable because of that show starring those orange creatures.

 

[Kitteh]

New Jersey was never cool, nor shall it ever be cool. But it is an overcast, depressing state!

 

[Radelaide]

Us Australians miss out on everything

Ha, I know what they're talking about because JERSERY SHORE AND JERSEYLICIOUS ARE FRIGGIN' HILARIOUS.

Seriously, get Foxtel and watch it. Best "reality" show ever.

 

[Vortigar]

New Jersey is such a cool place to be they had to give a Belgian tennis-player the nickname Jersey-girl because she's married to a guy from Jersey.

What was up with that?

Then again, Kim Clijsters was cool right upto the point I learned she liked bulldogs. Those things can't even be born naturally. It's an overbred type of dog that can not survive in the wild anymore because we thought it looked kinda funny. The entire race is an affront to nature.

so you can have her if you want.

haha oh god...after watching south park tonight, (i realize its all stereotyped), i can't help but laugh once again at how incredibly stupid and rage filled people get on that stupid ass show, god dammit, i feel bad for NJ as it is slightly giving you a bad name for people who dontk now the show doesn't reflect the state.

SNOOKI WANT MOOSH MOOSH

Yeah, I have no idea what's going on in this thread.

 

[Secret world leader (shhh)]

New Jersey is often the subject to were romances occur in songs. That often in heart break. I only like Jersey for two reasons and they're mine

Damn you skullkid, now i won't be able to think all day for this song benig stuck in my head, DAMN YOUUUUUU!

 

[The Rockerfly]

Wait, why does New York hate New Jersey?

Sorry I'm from England but I would like to know

 

[SomeLameStuff]

What, when did New Jersey become cool? My money's on when Kevin Smith started making movies there. But then he left and the cool is gone now.

I beg to differ.
