If you had to choose between one to stay and one to go during the summer...which would you let stay...Guidos or Benny's? It's a toughy.
summer migrants I think having people around for a few months is very entertaining, i mean after isolation for 9 months it's nice to have some fun there's always something going on, if you want to see guidos drive by the surf club any given summer night in ortley, nj it is so steryotyped it is hilarious. Anyway its not like people that come down know how to surf that well and the dudes that are in all year will still get all the waves anyway, plus it's light out at 500am and dark by 900 so you could get 2 3-hour sessions a day with sun and warmth. The only thing that sucks about summer is lack of swell but when it comes it is the best I think. So I like having both around but again only for the limited time there here trust me September is great month too.
tommy - these are the new jersey tourists coming down from New York. We get a different breed in Delmarva.
well I'm a BENNY from Staten Island that works in South Jersey and spends alot of time down there in the off season fishing and surfing... I'm far from a guido... and cant stand them myself... BUT... when people from NJ get nasty and try to screw with me cuz I'm a Benny... that gets me pissed off... especially when half the people that live in South Jersey moved from New York within the past 30 yrs... I usually respond with... Go F'off PINEY... but I try to make friends at first... cuz I do understand the frustration of people moven in on your turf... I have people from Brooklyn moven onto my block and I cant stand it... so now I'm looken to buy a house down the shore and get away from NY for good... wish me luck... and remember... not all BENNYS are bad... except the GUIDOS... they suck no matter where they come from...
WTF is a PINEY? Haha. Never heard that. And not ALL Benny's are bad? IDK... And yes GUIDOS SUCK! Jw where did the term guido come from?
BENNY = B-ayonne, E-lizabeth, N-ewark and N-ew Y-ork Tourists from North Jersey and New York whole only know that the beach exists from Memorial Day to Labor Day. An easy way to determine if someone is a BENNY's is that they will typically say "I'm going down the shore" instead of "to the beach". BENNY's are called SHOOBIES south of LBI. A Guido is a greasy looking North Jersey or New York guy typically Italian or Latin or wannabe of either who tawk wit dat Noo Yawk accent, wear gold chains and wife beaters, and act like rude idiots getting in fights at D'Jais in Belmar. Guido's are BENNY's so the poll is kinda pointless. PINEY's are rude redneck white trash South Jersians and the name is taken from the Pine Barrons. However it's a useful term when any south Jersey local is being rude. Personally I can do without any and all rude people no matter where they are from. Unfortunately they all flock to the beach from Memorial Day to Labor Day and even the rude locals act more rude than normal during that time. It's an unfortunate necessity for the economy of the beach towns and even the inland towns that thrive on that summer revenue, but I wish anyone who doesn't like the beach enough to visit it in the winter would stay away in the summer too.
Yeah, Don't forget all the people from PA . Anyway, I work at the beach, so without all the tourism I wouldn't have a job... However, I could do without any of them
