Quote from Ted in I Heart NJ
Lily: Why am I telling you this? You hate New Jersey more than anyone. Ted: What? I don't hate New Jersey! Why would you think that? [flashback:] Ted: And then he cut in front of me! God, I hate line cutters more than I hate... New Jersey. Well that's not true, there's nothing I hate more than New Jersey. [flashback to Ted arriving at MacLaren's wearing a t-shirt which reads "New Jersey" under a red banned sign] Ted: Huh? [Ted turns around to reveal "I Hate New Jersey" is written on the back] Nice? [flashback:] Marshall: Hey, you want us to wait for you? Ted: No, I might be awhile, I got to a drop a massive New Jersey. [present:] Ted: Okay, so New Jersey's not my favorite place but once Stella and I get married, and she and Lucy move in with me, I'll never set foot in New Jersey again. Unless I'm going to see a Giants game or, flying down at Newark, or, God forbid, disposing of a body.
