Remember Jersey Shore?

  1. steampunkforever said: @kontextmaschine Oh interesting. It’s a wonder what proximity to jersey will do to a person
  2. kontextmaschine said: @steampunkforever it was used in the sense of “the guys from Jersey Shore” and not like, ‘50s greasers or anything. The girls would’ve been classed as “hoochie mamas” though.
  3. raginrayguns said: “oh you’re from new jersey? like jersey shore?” “no no im not a guido” (years later) “hmm was that racist? is guido a racial slur?”
  4. steampunkforever said: @kontextmaschine I’m not in a particularly Italian-concentrated part of the country so it surprised me when I started hearing people bring it up more when they found out I was Italian
  5. kontextmaschine said: @steampunkforever I mean, I assure you it was heard in Pennsylvania counties bordering Jersey in the interim
  6. steampunkforever said: Notable for briefly bringing back “Guido” as a common piece of slang not heard since the 70s
