What It Means to Be from Jersey

I've seen it before, and I've seen it again, but this time it's my turn to post it.

Yo, I'm from Jersey. I curse... a lot. I say dawg, son, yo, and B...a lot. It's also a sub, not a hero or a hoagie. The diner is a natural end to a good night out. I know that a bagel is a helluva lot more than just a roll with a hole in the middle.I never had school on Rosh Hashanah or Yom Kippur. I know how to drive... and tailgate. NYC is THE CITY. I sure as hell dont pump my own gas. I know what real pizza tastes like-& know that getting a pie means pizza, not apple or cherry. All parties end with a fight. I don't go to the beach-I go down the shore. I judge people by what exit they are off the parkway or turnpike. I know 65mph really means 80. When someone cuts me off, they get the horn and the finger & expect it. I dont wear red or blue cuz i know being caught in the wrong hood with those colors on will get u shot. I'm from JERSEY and I fuckin love this place.
