Speaking as someone who has lived throughout the country, I can say with some authority that Jersey ain’t that great. I would never bash good ol’ Jers, as she does have some high points, but let’s at least look at things from a balanced perspective. NJ’s not bad, but let’s don’t go overboard with accolades. The guy pumping your gas isn’t exactly making our flammable vapor experience any safer. I mean no disrespect, these guys have to work long hours outside in crappy weather and deal with lippy, know it all Jersey peeps, but it’s not like these guys are highly trained refueling technicians. I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure you don’t need any type of certification to undertake the task of pumping gas in NJ. And just for the record, Jersey does smell. I don’t know if it’s her fault, it might be a gland issue, but there are some funky parts all the same. The whole ”Garden State” motto too? You’re not fooling anyone. My entire time out here I’ve seen one garden, and like most things in Jersey, it was on the side of the highway. Every week I get some email forwarded to me about Jersey, written by a native Garden Stater, ranting about how great it is. I get it, you feel you must defend the weak. Because I think we can all agree that the strong could defend themselves. Stop trying so hard to pitch me on this place. If it was worth buying would you have to work so hard to sell it? Love ya Ash!!!
