I can't wait to get out of this freaking state.

Here's two stories of why New Jersey sucks

A) I went to a concert. The band had not played their #1 hit yet, but said "Good night everyone!". While the lights stayed black, 60% of the people at the concert tripped over one another to leave because they thought the concert was over. When the band came back on for their "encore", half the crowd had left thinking the concert was over. DUMB.

B) The Parkway has 6 lanes between exit 100 and exit ~127. Three are express, Three are local. Yesterday, New Jersey decided to do construction on 2 of the express lanes. But instead of closing off the express side entirely, they decided to just keep one lane open, DURING rush hour, WITHOUT any prior notice before the split. So 60% of the traffic was going into the express lanes, without any advance warning that there was construction ahead, during rush hour, when they could have just taken the local lanes, which weren't busy at all.

Good we don't want your kind here.

LOL you think dumb people and road construction only exists in NJ? Grow up. You sound like a whiney teenager in HS who always says "Man I cannot wait to get out of here."

Maybe it was the type of people that go to that type of concert?


At least gripe about stuff that is actually real in NJ, like no front window tint, or front liscense plate.

Just asked me English teacher friend. No problems with the grammar. Try again.

I find the concert part for the better. If they all leave before the show ends, it's easier to get out when it really ends.


Oh and by the way, Boston sucks too.

You think Jersey sucks so you want to try Boston? You got that move backwards. I hope you like paying as much for a place to park your car as you do for a place to park yourself. :)

Well what they taught us in SAT class is that a phrase like "to plan on" or "planning on" is not proper grammar, but since it's been used so much, it's pretty much been accepted as correct. But you cannot literally "plan on" doing something, you must "plan to" do something.

Language evolves though, and it's just part of the process. No one really cares, I just felt like poking a little :p

Reason #1 Why New Jersey Sucks: Pennsylvania would have oceanfront property if it weren't for New Jersey.
