New Jersey's Official X Account Just Started A Hilarious Feud With Pennsylvania—And Oh Dear

The official X account of the state of New Jersey just dragged Pennsylvania hard in a single tweet about the "saddest place on Earth"—and Pennsylvanians are up in arms.

New Jersey got feisty and skewered neighboring Pennsylvania with a dig in response to a tweet asking where the "saddest place on earth" might be.

The tagline is a riff on Disneyland's designation as "The Happiest Place on Earth," which Creepy.org's X account invoked to get responses for the following inquiry:


"If Disneyland is the 'happiest' place on Earth, where do you think is the 'saddest' place on earth?"

While social media users humored the account that explores the "creepy side of the world" with irreverently hilarious comments, the official X account for the state of New Jersey joined in and provided its "saddest place" pick with a graphic that spoke for itself.

It was a map of the state of Pennsylvania.

Yeah, NJ went there.

Needless to say, Pennsylvanians were seething and sent retaliatory strikes against the Garden State.

Meanwhile, social media users grabbed some popcorn.



Some begged to differ.


Others savaged NJ with plenty of shade.





One Pennsylvanian thought it was a game well played.

This wasn't the first time NJ fired first shots at its neighbors.

When Connecticut revealed new road signs recently, including one that indicated the state was the "Pizza Capital of the United States," the official NJ X account said, "I don't think so."

The account tagged U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg and asked:

"Is it legal to lie on road signs @SecretaryPete ?? asking for a friend."

With NJ's recent jab at the Keystone State, it all comes down to this: Are you Team NJ or Team PA?

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
