{{quote|Located in you know where the fuck we are, and bordered by a bunch of places that can suck it -- especially you, Pennsylvania -- New Jersey is one of the nation's oldest and most historic states. So fuck you. Founded by a guy who could kick your state founder's ass, and boasting some of the safest, cleanest cities in America -- you hear that, jerk? -- New Jersey will destroy you, just say the word. And while the state has in recent years come under fire from environmental groups, that doesn't fucking matter because Jersey rules. Oh, and by the way, the entire state was balls-deep in your girlfriend last night.
