    Why always the stumpy one!! Always a stumpy one. Poor little stumpington, amidst those staggering trunks of mannish woman crap.


    Whatever. Poor New Jersey, I do love you so.

    How does a single mom with apparently no job become the first AmEx black card holder in her area? Yeah, there is definitely something fishy going on with this group.

    I am but a lowly West Coaster, so I don't know so much about you furrin East Coast people. Is New Jersey REALLY that bad? Someone who is familiar with both East and West Coast cities should give me an example of a similar city that touches or is near to the Pacific Ocean. Also.

    @thatonegirlsays Lá Fhéile Pádraig Shona Daoibh!: Well, as far as the stereotype of New Jersey is concerned, the Inland Empire of California comes pretty close. I would say NJ is 1/4 East Bay, 1/4 Inland Empire, 1/4 Metro Phoenix, and 1/4 the San Fernando Valley.

    So Real Housewives of Orange County used an orange as its logo; New York used an apple; Atlanta used a peach. What will the logo be for Real Housewives of New Jersey? A middle finger? An oil tank? A rotten tomato?

    @gangsta_geeky: Seriously. I can't believe these people can claim with a straight face to get that kind of money from a "catering" business.


    See recap from Dina and Tommy's VH1 episode about their wedding.


    Dina and Tommy are planning one of the most expensive weddings New Jersey has ever seen. Since Tommy and his brother Al own a high-end banquet facility, they know the biz and have enough cash to get anything they want. Bottom line... there's no budget for this grand affair.


    Dina, an interior decorator, is indulging plenty -- to the tune of $50,000 for hand-blown glass butterflies and $10,000 for a Badgley Mischka couture gown. But as the planning progresses, she feels Tommy & Al are running the show. Making matters worse, Tommy won't stop adding to their already massive 600 person guest list....even down to the last minute!


    With almost $500,000 in flowers flown in from around the world, over $70,000 in entertainment, thousand dollar bottles of wine, and a 7-foot "Huge Ass Cake," Tommy and Dina's day is one for the ages. In the end, the bill is staggering: over a million bucks.

    What exit of the Parkway are they from? What mall do they go to? When they go down the shore, is it to Seaside, Cape May, or LBI? These are pressing things people ask you when you're from New Jersey.
