Oh,Parsippany. My home, sweet home. For all of you out there who have never experienced North Jersey, welcome to the number 13th best town to live in America, Best in New Jersey. Every major highway in New Jersey leisurely cuts its way through this town. I love this town very much and all of its nonsense and shenanigans.
Traffic never ends, the middle finger is its own art form, and stupidity is not tolerated. North Jersey is not the easiest place to assimilate into but it may instill those who grow up in its culture with the most unique point of view in the world. For some reason many other areas believe that Jersey residents believe they are better than the rest of the country, well that's wrong, we know we aren't better but we are just real. Of course there are those jokers that catch the national eye, with their greasy hair and poor ability to articulate. They are not what we call Jersey, they are posers and we do not endorse that form of idiocy.
Now that you understand that North Jersey residents are real, now let me explain what a normal day in Parsippany is like. In Parsippany, we like to wake up and drive to school or work, step out of the house and embrace the sirens and loving car horns. Many people commute to New York City (technically 20 minutes away but traffic makes it at least an hour each way)and there is no better breakfast than a Taylor Ham, Egg, and Cheese sandwich on a bagel from a local bakery. For all you non-Jersey residents Taylor Ham is the best stuff out there. Its also called Pork Roll, its delicious a cross between Canadian bacon and ham, and its just good.
There is so much to write about Parsippany, again traffic, good times playing in the streets with my friends growing up, walking to elementary school, getting pizza at the 17 different pizzerias on one street, and just chilling. The most peculiar part about growing up in Parsippany that there was always so much to do that it actually made us very bored, and we were to say the least, over stimulated. Parsippany is a good town, if you can make it there you have a good head start into living the North Jersey lifestyle. Come visit sometime, my mom will throw some eggplant parm in the oven and pour you a glass of wine, just come bearing dessert.
Ti Amo
I love these earlier posts. You've really come into your "Jersey voice." The sarcasm is fantastic.
