You know you're from Jersey if...

I’ve seen about a thousand of these lists but they still make me laugh.  These are some things I haven’t seen on one of these lists yet.

You know you’re from Jersey if…

-You refer to Bob Seger as the “poor man’s” Bruce Springsteen

-You’ve been to the places in Kevin Smith movies

-You can name the one bad pizza place in your county

-You pronounce Newark as one syllable, not NEW-ARK like how those idiots from Delaware say it

-You criticize where everyone else is from

-You don’t really know what grinders, heroes, po boys or hoagies (beside Hoagie Hut) are, but you could pick a Tastee’s sub out of a lineup

-You know no one farted, that’s just the way Elizabeth smells

-You’ve been getting wasted in Seaside since the night of your senior prom, not just the last 2 summers like some people

-You actually like the Nets

-You curse a lot but don’t give a shit about it

-You don’t mind traffic circles and think they’re actually kind of a good idea

-You don’t eat at chain Italian restaurants

-You consider “Boardwalk” food a food group

-You know that if it smells like Bayonne…well, if you’re from Jersey you know the rest
