New Jersey Satire

       This clip from a South Park episode fits perfectly into satire, because it making fun of the hit show Jersey Shore and the people of New Jersey. The funny part about the whole video is the fact that how these people are acting is a spitting image of how the people on the Jersey Shore act. The skit does a good job at showcasing the stereotypical resident of New Jersey and the characteristics they seem to all have. Some of which are their thick accents and the fact that they are willing to fight for really no apparent reason. This makes the cast of the Jersey Shore look stupid along with the people of New Jersey. Skits like this make people believe that everyone in New Jersey acts as irrationally as they tan and tattooed people in the skit. I believe this skit shows satire because it pokes fun at the people of New Jersey and the show that so many people associate New Jersey with, but in a funny way without being overly harsh.
