why am i at work today? Staples didn't close our office. So annoying. My snowboard is at home, begging to be used.
I hope the 104 miles is roundtrip and not one way. Cuz I'd have to say you are crazy to drive that far then. haha...
Roundtrip and still crazy. But, you do what you kinda gotta do to earn a buck and a can of beans in this crazy world.
Very true. I drive 64 miles roundtrip and am very happy I only do it 3 days a week now.
If I were working full-time or apartments in my job area were cheaper, I'd move closer to it. Almost moved to Bensalem PA area where it's affordable and closer to work, but I shifted my plans.
Where do you live and where do you commute to?
Madchester NJ to Skillman NJ (Princeton vicinity)
Haha... I looked up Madchester and it is a type of Rock. Is that the codename for your real town? Cuz I've never heard of a town by that name.
he means Manchester. a little, woodsy area near Toms River, Lakehurst, and Jackson.
Ah, gotcha. Sorry, I don't speak South Jersey. LOL!
Redsweater doesn't need another regional Jersey discussion, does it? Look, there's 2 hours of Jersey below me, 2 hours of Jersey above me. I've always been from Central Jersey that's why I find it so strange and aggravating that anybody above The Amboys disses me for a Southerner (not saying they're the uncoo - just that I'm a Central boy - it's very cultural... at worse, I'm South Centralite, but nonetheless a Centralite)... not about to have a psuedo yuppie tell me otherwise at any time of the day. hahaha
This will probably spark another regional Jersey war, but oh well.. Had to respond.. couldn't let it go.
But in a more direct response to the comment.. it's not Jersey speak at all. I just say Madchester, 'cause my town is called Manchester, and Madchester was a music movement in Manchester England in the 80s/90s (Happy Mondays, New Order, Stone Roses, etc)... so your bit of internet research had the right reference in that regard. Kinda made me laugh you thought Madchester was the actual name of where I live in NJ. hahaha. Wasn't trying to be cryptic or anything... truly thought you'd figure it out.
haha i got this rad geography lesson from lauren and dan on their last visit. still kinda confusing BUT i kinda get where things/people are. lol
Sorry... I had to wikipedia it to figure it out... I do not know music movement history, nor do I care to know.
Us Northerners consider everything below route 78 as South Jersey. We rule... you drool... :oP
So in other words, Cranford, Elizabeth, Bayonne are South Jersey ...whatever, take the 1/4 of NJ you say is North Jersey and just declare it a brand new State. Where I'm from will always be Central... as well as anyone who lives in this region... Northerners will never legitimize that.. not the first time I've had a NJ regional debate with someone, so nothing new. I have Southern Jersey cousins... they even have different accents. Central Jersey exists not only geographically but culturewise as well. Ask a real South Jersey person if they consider me or anyone else in Ocean County to be a South Jersey person. Northerner's won't let us be Central, Southerners won't let us be South. Keep the Peace, Tear Down the Wall. This isn't Belfast.
Wow, I don't think I can respond to that. That was like a line out of a movie.
...and the award for most overacted soliloquy for something completely trivial goes to.......
hahaha
You know for a fact I'm in the suburb section and not the rural section
"Manchester Township is 82.5 square miles and is the third largest Township in central New Jersey's Ocean County."
Toms River = "Total 52.9 sq mi"
Little? South Jersey?
I think not
Rest my case
Goodnight
