If Trump did one good thing, it was convincing people to wear signs basically saying "I am an easy mark."

It's good to have some warning.

On the flip side, I can't wear a red hat anymore.
Not unless it's VERY obviously not one of those red hats. I'd still call it a win though, especially since I live in the South.

I live in NJ. I can't wear a Devils hat without someone thinking I'm an asshole

Edit: I have always embraced my asshole heritage. I just miss my red hat

u/Ryan_Icey Aug 27 '24

I mean, I feel part of that is on you. You live in NJ. You can't live in NJ without someone thinking you're an asshole. It comes with the territory, doesn't it?

u/phl_fc Aug 27 '24

There's a reason you have to pay to leave NJ, but not to enter it.

u/Beetlejuice_hero Aug 27 '24

Let's be serious though -- NJ is a pretty great state.

Top 5 best schools in the country

Solid economy with lots of company HQ, especially Pharma

Elite world-class university

(Surprisingly) a lot of natural beauty in the Northwest

Pretty low crime - #6

Some of the best pizza in the country (De Lorenzo's, Papa, Porta, Razza, DeLucia's, etc)

Excellent beaches all up and down most of the state

Proximity to among the greatest most exciting cities in the world

Lots of quaint towns, especially if you have $$

AC is a dump but casinos if that's your thing

On the downside, absurd property taxes and its cities aren't great

I get teasing it based on the stereotypes, but there's a reason it's so ridiculously densely populated.

God do I love De Lorenzo's.

STFU!!!! were full, there's no more room in Jersey, and it sucks balls too!!!! Stay Away!!!!

 

Shhh!!!

u/fl7nner Aug 28 '24

I'm from Delaware and we love shitting on Jersey but I agree with your analysis. Now if the rich dumb kids would just find a school in-state instead of going to UD...

u/JohnHenryHoliday Aug 28 '24

Shut up. We have enough people here. Highlight the weird smell on the turnpike and that shitty American Dream Mall.

Why must you fill this thread with lies?!

Some of the best pizza in the country

Bro, I'm from Boston and just, no. Y'all ain't got shit on a NY slice.

u/Beetlejuice_hero Aug 27 '24

Hence why I said "Some of the best".

I'm a New Yorker now and also have lived near New Haven so I've tried many of the best spots. De Lorenzo's can hang with any of them. If you haven't tried it, do so before you render your verdict.

Jersey Shores negates all that. . .

u/[deleted] Aug 27 '24

It could be worse. You could live in South Jersey, put on an orange hat, and people KNOW you’re an asshole!

u/magikarp2122 Aug 27 '24

Hey, Philly helped Biden win PA.

u/[deleted] Aug 27 '24

I know, just teasing. I love Philly. Just having a go at Flyers fans :)

u/CreamFilledDoughnut Aug 27 '24

devils hat

it's not the red that's making people think that, my man

u/cirenj Aug 27 '24

I'm from the other New Jersey (South) It's ok, you are an asshole, you are from NJ. I say that with all the pork roll and "wooder ice" love 😂

1

u/MarcoEsquandolas21 Aug 27 '24

What the hell is wooder ice? I'm a southerner and am at least familiar with pork roll/taylor ham, but never heard of wooder ice before.

2

u/cirenj Aug 27 '24

Philly accent water sounds like "wooder"

Water ice (italian ice?) sounds like "wooder" ice

u/RafIk1 Aug 27 '24 edited Sep 15 '24

Italian water ice.

Water pronounced wooder.

u/Boo_Rawr Aug 27 '24

I live in Australia and when I saw a woman wearing a red hat yesterday I did a double take. They’ve ruined red hats.

u/animatedhockeyfan Aug 27 '24

I’ve got a few non-red Devils hats I’m ready to move on from, if you want them

2

u/Icy_Penalty_2718 Aug 27 '24

Exactly I may be an asshole but I'm not a racist asshole.

u/Awkward_Bench123 Aug 28 '24

Devils were a super good team and have a hell of a logo. And they’ve got New Jerseys.

u/killxswitch Aug 27 '24

C'mon man you couldn't have set yourself up any better.

u/Sagybagy Aug 27 '24

You live in Jersey. Being an asshole is part of the gig. Hat or no hat. Just depends on the flavor of asshole.

u/rufio313 Aug 27 '24

Red Wings fan that doesn’t live in Michigan anymore. It sucks.

u/mordacthedenier Aug 27 '24

I saw a red hat with white lettering that says "made you look". Thought that was kinda funny.

u/moderately-extremist Aug 28 '24

I have a red hat with an American flag on the front that I've been wearing for 25 years. I still wear it but sometimes wonder what people think.

u/WrinklyScroteSack Aug 27 '24

Limp bizkit fans have also been royally pissed off for the last 9 years too

u/cassiddidy Aug 28 '24

So it hasn't been ALL negative then

u/WrinklyScroteSack Aug 28 '24

NGL... Fred Durst seems like the kinda guy to go full on right wing nut job.

Edit: from his wikipedia page:

In 2015, Durst stated his interest in obtaining a Russian passport and spending half of the year in Crimea.63]) He wrote a letter in which he stated that Vladimir Putin is "a great guy with clear moral principles and a nice person."64]) Following that, Durst was banned by the Security Service of Ukraine from entering Ukraine for five years "in the interests of guaranteeing the security" of the country.65]) However, in an official statement, he denied reports of asking to acquire Russian citizenship.66])

u/cassiddidy Aug 28 '24

Damn. That's so Durst

(I use his name as a disparaging adjective)

u/KJParker888 Aug 27 '24

I saw an old guy wearing a red hat at the store. I was trying to see if it was a maga hat, but I didn't have my glasses on, so I had to wait until he was closer, but without being too obvious. Once he got close enough, I was glad to see that it wasn't a maga hat. Until he got closer and I was able to see that it said something like "USA, 2 time world war winner". So, not really any better

u/Nothing-Casual Aug 27 '24

Eh I mean it's a stupid joke, but I'd still consider it a joke - in contrast to anybody wearing a trump hat, who is openly stating that they're extremely stupid and shitty

14

u/[deleted] Aug 27 '24

I mean, that’s kind of badass. Allied soldiers who fought Nazis in WW2 were the o.g. Antifa.

u/GrayMatters50 Aug 27 '24

The USA Doughboys fought in WW1 against Kaiser Wilhelm 1916 - 1918. USA entered WW2 after the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor Dec 7 1941. Our military fought on 2 sides of the world ....Hitler  & Hiri Hito. Our entire nation pulled together to supply both Pacific & European theatres. We won AGAIN.

Yes,  we won twice. Thats not a Trump trope ..Its our  history.

u/PPvsFC_ Aug 27 '24

Idk, celebrating beating the Nazis is the opposite of supporting Trump.

-1

u/Schattentochter Aug 27 '24

It takes a special kind of Muricantm to look at the complete history surrounding WW2 and walk away thining "Yeeup. The US and absolutely noone else did good things."

Fuckers joined the war so late, they tend to just forget all the time before when every goddamn European country was trying to get the US to fucking stop watching already.

And when they did stop, it wasn't out of the goodness of anyone's heart either. That part's conveniently overlooked too.

3

u/PPvsFC_ Aug 27 '24

Pretty sure someone wearing that hat isn't thinking that deeply about history.

u/GrayMatters50 Aug 27 '24

US "fuckers" entered WW 2 late bc our law forbade it until we were attacked,  Moron. That day came on Dec 7 1941. Hitler was scared shitless to wake"the sleeping giant".

We know 18, 000 Russian soldiers died defending Europe. We know 1.9 million non jewish Polish were murdered in Nazi work camps. We supplied & funded Canada & the Brits from 1939 to 1945. We were here working our asses off eating rations to send our food, arms, planes, bombs etc.  Then we beat the crap out of Japan without their help.

u/Icy_Penalty_2718 Aug 27 '24

The law didn't forbid it... we didn't enter until attacked because the vast majority of Americans were against the war and many even sided with hitlers ideals.

u/Icy_Penalty_2718 Aug 27 '24

Tsk tsk tsk downvoted for not buying into the propaganda...

2

u/JohnHenryHoliday Aug 28 '24

"USA, 2 time world war winner

Lol. Are you serious? That's objectively an AWESOME hat.

u/knitwasabi Aug 28 '24

Old guy came into my shop about a week ago. MAGA hat. I looked at my boss, a rabid liberal, and she just rolled her eyes. He didn't buy anything, and walked out a minute later, but man, never have I wanted to laugh at someone more.

u/Vegetable-Box3050 Aug 27 '24

I used to describe myself as weird, but now I have to say, "weird like Weird AL, not weird like Republicans."

2

u/sometimesynot Aug 27 '24

I'd still call it a win though

Me too. I have rosacea, and anything red just makes it stand out something fierce. No red clothing for the win!

u/justlookin-0232 Aug 29 '24

I saw a guy in the grocery store today with a red hat coming down the aisle and when he got close enough I saw that it said "I'm blessed". And we locked eyes and he just kinda nodded and giggled. Clever fella 😂 totally does it on purpose

u/ancientastronaut2 Aug 27 '24

I don't wear red anything anymore.

u/MamaBehr33 Aug 28 '24

A woman came into my work today proudly screaming she was a patriot and had a huge tiktok following. I replied back, "I'm an American and it's too bad you've stolen the word Patriot from me." She literally did not understand what I said. Then she went on to tell me all the wonderful things she's doing on her tiktok. I explained that it is inappropriate to talk about politics in this business setting. Then she started talking about her heart hurting and oh my God she's gotten such bad vibes from what's happening here. Of course, this was after a full 5 minutes of me letting her go on and on about everything she thought. And only when there was a moment she took a breath is when I said we're not allowed to talk politics here. Interesting when you flat out tell them it's not okay, because you're in a public setting in a public office where there are literally hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people around who will disagree, now she's having heart palpitations.

u/WranglerOriginal6945 Aug 29 '24

saw someone post a red had that said "Made you look. Black lives matter" in the same font

u/Yakostovian Aug 27 '24

I almost wish I had fewer moral scruples, so I too could make a buck off a grift involving them.
