Joisey!

One thing that's funny about the Jersey Shorte is that there was actually a "Snookie" in my hometown when I was a kid: our biology teacher, Mr. Robertson:
Oh, and I had Biology too. This was Mr. Robertson ("Snookie"), who was 100 years old, had taught everybody's grandfather. What the fuck - apparently at my school to be a teacher you had to either be old enough to have invented your field of study, or big enough to eat it. Christ. You could tell he hadn't changed a thing in his classroom since 1959 either; the weird stuff in formaldehyde you always have in thes back rooms. 2-headed cat, the dog with 6 legs, Jayne Mansfield's head. He also was hysterical when he'd rattle off, what were they, genome codes or whatever, he'd be like "...alright...copy this down...the genome makeup for...the...frog is.....bigTlittleTlittleTlittleTbigTbigTlittleTbigTbigTbigTbigTlittleTbigTbigTlittleTbigTlittleTlittleTlittleT and..,,,,,.bigT." Meanwhile you're still writing "The Cars suck" on your paper.
He was also famous for walking though the Dairy Queen drive-thru.  And rape.  That makes me sad :(
