Actually, I have a better question.

I have seen this in several american movies and TV shows, so here goes:

What do you americans have against New Jersey?

It's hard to explain but it's almost impossible not to hate it....I mostly hate it from driving in it sucsk...

New Jersey was originally made fun of because of its massive amounts of dumps and land fills.  New Jersey has about 108 dumps which is more than any other state in the US.  As time passed, New Jersey itself became the joke.

Some might remember it from one of the original New Jersey jokes in Futurama:

New York City: The year 2000. The most wasteful society in the history of the galaxy and it was running out of places to empty its never-ending output of garbage. [People throw black bags full of rubbish out of office windows and they are bulldozed away.] The landfills were full. New Jersey was full. And so, under cover of darkness, the city put its garbage out to sea on the world's largest barge. [A man unties a barge filled with garbage and pushes it away from the pier.] The repulsive barge circled the oceans for 50 years but no country would accept it, not even that really filthy one. You know the one I mean. Finally, in 2052, the city used its mob connections to obtain a rocket and launch the garbage into outer space. Some experts claim the ball might return to Earth someday, but their concerns were dismissed as "depressing".
