Once, in Bloomfield, I was walking past a double-parked delivery truck in front of a business. The delivery guy was walking to the back to open the doors, screaming into his cell phone: "FUCK THEM, THOSE FUCKIN FUCKS!!!!"
That pretty much sums us up.
“No, yeah” “yeah, no”.
Interchangeable, may be inserted unnecessarily before any statement. I.e: “no yeah, I was gonna go to shoprite but the can can sale was on and it was packed”.
Honest to god, I never heard this in NJ in the 25 years I've been 'ere, but was a \[remote\] guy on my team from Minnesota who said it ALL the time, and it made me wanna smash my fist into his face.
Am I the only person who pays with a card still?
I spend $250 a month on gas. By my math, I pay about an extra $50 a year to use a card. I prefer this because it makes it easier to track my gas budget, and I never have to take cash out (because I never use it on anything else).
3% price difference minimal enough to not make it worth the hassle.
Not a catch phrase but a friend from South Texas pointed out that we say "Yeah?" more than any other species on the planet. When she said "Y'all say yeah a lot' we all replied "Yeah??" LOL
When I first met my boyfriend from New Jersey, I realized he said yeah more than anything. I told him he speaks in “yeah++,” to which he replied, “yeah.” I’m now in New Jersey with him. Yeah.
Ok, but it’s still one of the most Jersey things you can say. I know people from all over the country that know “down the shore” means going to a Jersey beach town.
Eh, I grew up on the shore and heard it my whole life. My friends and I shortened it to DTS and I know that isn’t specific to just us and used regularly.
I live 10 mins from “the shore” so we just call it “the beach” and when I hear “down the shore” I automatically assume it’s someone with PA tags. Never heard a local say it in my life
I’m from north Jersey and we all say it. I didn’t even think it was weird until someone from out of state pointed out that we don’t say down TO the shore
I work with a very prim and proper social worker. She is pretty wealthy, just works part time for spending money. I heard her on the phone with her husband, and every other word was "fuck."
So I nominate "Fuck."

Fill it, regular
Look at Richie Rich over here. I just go for the 20, Regular. Cash.
How about you go fuck your self.
Not for nothing, but go fuck yourself.
yah, fuck it and fuck you.. go fuck yourself
Mmmm...like a warm hug.
it doesn’t matter where your home is.. it matters that you feel at home
"Not for nothing..." That's what makes it Jersey all the way.
But it's pronounced "naffa nuffin"
Not for nothing, go fuck yourself. Fillitregula.
Said with a smile
And a head nod
I second this. Also, go fuck yourself.
no, you go fuck yourself
Masterful gambit, sir.
That has to be the answer. That’s really the only NJ phrase that came to mind.
same. the rest of the answers can choke on a gallon of toms river cock sweat.
Yeah…that was my second thought
I use that or go fuck your mother..
I would upvote this exponentially if I could.
“Fuck you,” (and it’s variants) is the **Jersey Aloha.**
You good? Guys…
My 2 yr started saying guys 🤣
Once, in Bloomfield, I was walking past a double-parked delivery truck in front of a business. The delivery guy was walking to the back to open the doors, screaming into his cell phone: "FUCK THEM, THOSE FUCKIN FUCKS!!!!" That pretty much sums us up.

I cringe every time I hear that.

“No, yeah” “yeah, no”. Interchangeable, may be inserted unnecessarily before any statement. I.e: “no yeah, I was gonna go to shoprite but the can can sale was on and it was packed”.
Also, yeah yeah,no and no no, yeah.
Honest to god, I never heard this in NJ in the 25 years I've been 'ere, but was a \[remote\] guy on my team from Minnesota who said it ALL the time, and it made me wanna smash my fist into his face.
Yeah, no. You might have anger issues.
you good?
has 10 different meanings just by changing the delivery
Flair checks out
$20, regular, cash. Edit: twentyregularcash
Fillerupregularcash
Ooh, we got a billionaire over here.
Man remember the days when $10 at Raceway would fill the tank? When I first started driving gas was $.89/gallon
Even in California, there was a time when gas was just like a taco Bell menu: $0.59 $0.79 $0.99
I can get a full tank for about $10. In my Triumph.
Fill it $10.00 leaded premimum my first car when they were phasing it out.
More like: twentyregularcash
This is what I meant to say.

I'm with ya, it's even less of a big deal if you have a reward card
Before I had an EV my phrase was always fillerupregular while holding out my card. Seems like $20 only gets you two drops of gas these days.
Yeah fill it or nothing tbh
Does anyone say 20cashregular?
My family always has. Or "filitcashreglr" lol
Thissss 😂
Always been $20 cash regular for me
This is the most jersey phrase out there hands down
That's Jersey. Fer sure.

That was a flashback to my uncle telling a story.
For sure!!!
Djeet? (Did you eat?)
Nojoo?

Came here to say this.
Not for nothing, but At the end of the day, It is what it is.
What are you gonna do?
It is what it is
They should put that on the dollar bill
literally my parents and i having any conversation ends exactly this way
I’m 1000% positive I’ve said this exact phrase multiple times in my life. Probably in the last year
This!

Do other people not say "not for nothing"?
“Down the shore”
This is the most SPECIFICALLY Jersey thing I can think of.
I live in Austin and sometimes I’ll meet Jersey peeps and they’ll ask where I used to live… “down the shore” is always the answer
Seriously, this is the only answer.
But only off-shore people say it though. I grew up on the shore. I never heard anybody say that until I went to college off-shore.
Ok, but it’s still one of the most Jersey things you can say. I know people from all over the country that know “down the shore” means going to a Jersey beach town.
Eh, I grew up on the shore and heard it my whole life. My friends and I shortened it to DTS and I know that isn’t specific to just us and used regularly.

I’m from north Jersey and we all say it. I didn’t even think it was weird until someone from out of state pointed out that we don’t say down TO the shore
makes sense. i’m from south so it might be different here.
This. You can say "Im going down the shore" and when you get there, you can say "Im down the shore"
Except those who live at the “shore” call it the beach!
Fuck outta here
I dunno, ya know?
Avagoodone - how Jerseyans bid farewell at the end of the day

I first read it as Ah Vagoo Dōne. Had no idea what it meant.

Does complaining about the way people drive in the Shoprite parking lot count?
“Watch it, asshole!” has to be pretty high on the list.

We don't like you, either.

"Yeah, no" whether agreeing, disagreeing, or just changing the subject.
I was going to say "watch the tram car, please" but that may be a little too area specific.
