NJ doesn't hate all kids, just boat racing kids.

[MGallagher]

That's why I love this state! You can hate who ever you want, as long as it is on private property between the hours of 5:30pm and 6:30 AM, on dates that fall on the second Monday of even months only, when the wind is blowing out of the southwest at 6.3 mph for only 7 minute intervals, while skipping 30 seconds in between hating each person, OWWWWW, mine brain hurts from living in this state!
