I'm going to be teaching you New Jersey slang, but since I haven't lived there in about 25 years, I'm not sure that I'm going to know these phrases.

So I'm going to interpret what I think they should mean.

Mhm New Jersey slang with Chelsea Handler That's May down the shore.

It means just going down the shore to the part of New Jersey like Belmar, Spring Lake.

You know where people get really wasted, like that show Jersey Shore.

I grew up going to Martha's Vineyard when I was a little girl, and my parents protected me from the Jersey Shore.

But I went down there like when I was 18 or 19 and I realized why it was better just to avoid the area altogether.

There's some really shady that happens down there.

Benny is a derogatory term for people from different parts of New Jersey that people aren't so into, and so if you come in from one of those areas, I won't name them because I don't wanna be reduced to their level.

It's like coming into the city from New Jersey.

It's equivalent to that, but it's within New Jersey.

Everyone always wants to keep someone else down.

I would say that's short for a should do be.

Which is my personal word for going to the bathroom.

I don't like when people reference going to the bathroom Number two.

So should do be is shoe B if you're in a real rush.

Ah, pork roll pork roll that could be a sexual term.

Or it's the breakfast item that you get in South Jersey.

South Jersey is when you get into the really funny accents where they say like pantyhose and it starts to sound like you're in Philadelphia.

A pork roll is like It comes to some breakfast items, too, but you want to steer clear of all of these things.

I think these mean diner fries, where you go out with your girlfriends and then go to the diner.

Once everybody had enough to drink and get those really thick steak cheese fries with mozzarella cheese, and then you dip them in gravy.

Those were some of the best nights of my life.

That's when you want to go into the city.

Jug handle jug handle is either breasts that wrap around some some dio wrap around, or it's I think it could also be a term for something not a cold a sack, but a cold attack in a city like a circle.

What would normally be called a rotary, I think, is a jug handle.

But I'm not sure, Okay, I'm not a city planner.

You get all of the shit that you want, you can have a meatball hoagie.

You could have like a provolone and ham hoagie.

Anything on a big sub is called a hoagie, and I don't know why we had to make up that word.

If you have a hoagie, you're gonna take a doobie, so a tomato pie is quite literal.

This isn't really slang, because it is what it is.

It's like if you're making a pizza and halfway through, you give up a Ripper is something that will rip through your system.

It's a deep fried hot dog, and all of these things are very easy to find in New Jersey.

If you go down to like the Boardwalk in New Jersey, you will find things that are fried that you have never seen before.

And a hot dog should definitely not be one of them.

And as far as I'm concerned, he is the boss.

Everybody loves Bruce Springsteen, but people are obsessed with Bruce Springsteen obsessed, and those people could be extremely annoying.

A C that's Atlantic City, and I've had a lot of experiences in Atlantic City.

Waas waking up at a blackjack table with my eye shades on after my friends had dragged me back out of my room and I was up $500 and hadn't remembered a thing.

I've never spent ah long amount of time in Atlantic City because it just like Vegas, you want to get in and out before anything too dicey happens if you catch my drift.

Jersey slide Jersey slide is like a reference to traffic.

And my father, who was a used car dealer and a terrible driver, did this quite often.

This is when you cut across the traffic lane without signaling or letting anyone know and cutting in front of cars.

I also picked that up from him because apparently it's genetic.

Nobody will drive with me because of the jersey slide.

I do it to the right to, but this is if you're doing it to the left, the boards, the boards.

I don't know what the boards are, but I would say that that is related somehow to the boardwalk of Atlantic City.

That's probably New Jersey's way of like shortening the boardwalk and saying, Let's go to the boards.

Actually, now that I'm saying it out loud, that's exactly what it ISS exit.

Okay, exit is what people love to say to you when you say I'm from New Jersey to go what exit And then you say it's just like, you know, everyone lives off the turnpike at some point, so you people like Exit 16 but it's a very bro way of talking, so no women are talking like that, Okay?

Matz's mozzarella and in New Jersey, they have the buffalo mozzarella.

It's from a buffalo, but they like to call it months, so they always go.

You want a fresh plate of mud because there's a lot of Italians in New Jersey, so they have a lot of abbreviations for a lot of food items.

If you haven't picked up on that so far, there's a lot of Jewish people and have a lot of Italian people on were basically the same kind of people.

I didn't realize how many different phrases we have, but I guess that's state by state.

One is a bat, and I don't know what the other one is.

I'm not positive, but there is a team called the New Jersey Devils, and I believe that they play soccer.

Wah wah wah wah is like a 7 11 where you go in and you get your Ding Dongs or Devil Dogs.

Devil Dogs is another thing that comes from New Jersey.
