People from New Jersey are known for being tough and thick-skinned, but there are few things that cross a line and shake us to the core.

So what are these few things that you should never utter to someone from South Jersey?

We asked you what someone should never say to you aka someone from New Jersey. The answers that poured in made us nod in agreement.

Some of the responses made us laugh. Here are some things someone should never say to a New Jerseyan according to you.

"Wawa stinks."

Honestly, my blood boils just thinking of someone saying this to me. There are people who like Wawa and then there are people who are wrong. Don't be wrong.

"You don't sound like you're from Jersey."

Pizza is a hot-button issue when it comes to people from New Jersey. People will debate who makes the best pizza in the state, but the one thing we can all agree on is that it's better than New York.

"Hi, I'm from New York."

This one was just downright funny. Also kind of true, but not as bad as, "Hi, I'm from Pennsylvania."

"Ha, ha, you're from JOISEY?"

UGH! That annoying accent people put on when you tell them where you're from...

Why do they think that's funny?

Have they ever heard anyone talk like that before? Joisey? Really?

"Calm down."

This is a surefire way to escalate the situation to full-on rage. Telling us to calm down is the worst possible thing you can say.
