Oh, you might think. I've spent plenty o'time in Jersey. You can't find a Mexican restaurant, let alone a decent one, anywhere to save your chimichongas. A good friend of mine who lives in a mansion in Hunterdon county used to cream in his pants when he could get his two-million-dollar yacht in dock near Cape Canaveral and eat at some Chili's wannabe in Titusville, FL ... "because they don't have Mexican food where I live."

Driving in New Jersey is like driving in fucking goddamn Beijing... no fucking u-turns on major roads
Beijing driving is too f*ed up to compare to anything in Western civilization, btw. Imagine intersections that are about 2 miles apart, cars that speed at 55 between them, and they then come to traffic jams clustered at each one -- where everyone sort of makes up the right-of-way rules as they go.
But U-turns in Jersey? Are you kidding? My company has long had an office in Bridgewater, NJ. Trying to merge in and out of the divided freeway traffic in Hwy 22 off of I-287 using the U-turn lanes requires a JATO unit and a drag racing parachute.
