Well, if the "jersey shore" dipshits are the average person up there, I don't blame New Jersey for making a law to keep them away from gasoline.

That entire state is the sphincter of the U.S.

From what it sounds like, NY/NJ has the same type of hatred for each other as KCMO and KCK. We get it around here. The Super Bowl is in New Jersey not New York. If you ask us though, you are all just a bunch of arrogant east coasters, who all feel the world revolves around them. Suck it.

It's illegal to pump your own gas in New Jersey and Oregon.

Yep I was in Oregon and started to pump the gas-this old man came running out and grabbed it out of my hand. Something like a $500 fine to the station if they dont pump it for you.

It might have changed but yes it is real.

In oregon-every gas station had a homeless guy that would pump the gas while you used your credit card or went in and paid.

Yes. It's to preserve all the gas pumping jobs, I suppose.

Yes it is illegal in a lot of places for individuals to pump their own gas.

It's true. My wife is from Jersey and has no clue how to put gas in the car and has no desire to learn how. Drives me nuts.

Edit, when we talk to family back there, it's usually 5 cents or so cheaper than Kansas. I think it has to do with liability insurance. Less if you have a certified employee than some idiot that has a smoke in his mouth like I saw yesterday putting air in his tire by the pump.

tip 8. don't visit the arm pit of America. i mean new jersey. don't visit New Jersey

North Jersey is ugly as hell. Refineries and smoke stacks everywhere. Could smell it as soon as I walked out of the airport. Central Jersey has lots of trees, so no scenery till you get to the ocean. Never been to south, and from what I heard, I don't think I would go. The only good thing I could say is they don't litter the sides of their freeways with signs. Pull up to a stoplight and a nano-second after it turns green, the guy behind you is honking his horn.

In New Jersey, motorists who need to fill 'er up haven't pumped their own gas in 57 years. But in the face of soaring gas prices, Gov. Jon Corzine came up with a novel plan last month to try to ease the pain: allow self-service at some stations along the New Jersey Turnpike and see if prices dip. He believed prices could drop 5 to 7 cents a gallon.

Corzine retreated after about 1,400 e-mails and calls poured in from a mostly outraged public. Concern about other state issues paled in comparison. A proposal to raise the sales tax by one cent, for example, received about 200 responses from the public, says Brendan Gilfillan, a spokesman for the governor.
I know it is an older article. But it sounds like the people up there like it that way.
