Your argument for why New-Jersians are aggressive is well grounded and I welcome the insight from another native. The contributions of locals will only improve the information I'm giving to the readers. As for employing similar writing techniques for my state and others in the south, you needn't worry. I'm more critical of the problems in the south, because I know more about them. In fact, most of us are happy to make fun of our home states. I was born in West Virginia, I can't wait to talk about it. I've already had a reader contact me that's interested in writing their version of South Carolina, where they live. That person has no intention of being nice. Thanks for your comment and please check out the other states as they are published.

Since in your bio you say you live in the southeast, I assume when you get to your state you will talk about shotguns, moonshine and being racist. Until then, seriously, lay off the stereotypes. I lived most of my life in NJ, and yeah the traffic is bad but the state is filled with good people making a living, and trying to get by. But I will give you this one stereotype, if you decide to drive in NJ realize we have our own driving style here and yeah it's not for the weak of heart. But you would drive that way too if you were the most densly populated state and had an influx of visitiors every year trying to get to the ocean All I can say is wow, the purpose of this is to educate the rest of the country about different states, how about you lay off the stereotypes and concentrate on the economics.
