New Jersey


Link

Well our acting Governer decided to change our states slogan. They narrowed it down to five craptastic choices:

Quote:
* New Jersey, Expect the Unexpected – VOTE!
* New Jersey, Love at First Sight – VOTE!
* New Jersey, Come See For Yourself – VOTE!
* New Jersey, The Real Deal – VOTE!
* New Jersey, The Best Kept Secret – VOTE!


"The Real Deal" gave me quite a chuckle. Considering 3/4 of our populous are fake. Be it High Schoolers, Parents, Real Estate Agents, etc. All the way up to our elected officials. It sounds like a DJs slogan our something out of Vegas or AC.

Smiley: oyvey
Christ I hate this state

I leave it up to you, the Asylum, to decide a slogan, be it sterotypes of NJ or personal experiances. Lets hear them. Its going to take me awhile to come up with a fitting slogan for this dump of a state.

This seems like the stupidest thing to claim for a state. It's silly enough to have "State" birds and plants and sexual positions, but slogans?

Like I'm gonna go to Virginia for a honeymoon because the state slogan says "Virginia is for Lovers."

And more to the fact at hand, what exactly is there to draw tourists to in NJ?

Not a damn thing. Its a poor mans vacation or a lazy New Yorker/Pennsyvanians getaway. We have shi[/b]tty beaches with nasty water. Six Flags, but what state doesn't have one of these. A couple Boardwalks and hooker infested Atlantic City.

Basically its a "vacation" for people in surrounding states that can not afford are too cheap or too lazy to actually go on a real vacation. Instead they rent 2 bedroom houses filled with 16 people for the weekend. They go "Clubbing" at my "Shore House" (pronounced with a thick guinea accent)

They do all this while sitting in traffic for [b]5 HOURS
every Friday and ever Sunday (when they head back) thats 5 hours to go 80 miles.

I have quite the collection of these and have gone to several of the spots mentioned. Mostly in College when we bored and needed a scare.
