    Can you drive a vehicle with a manual transmission?

    Because I believe it’s important to have a basic understanding of how the things you use everyday in the world around you work. Manually engaging a clutch and shifting through the gears enables that over a mindless automatic. To what extent could be argued but IMHO it gets the mind turning...

    When trump is deafeated in

    I know “Ingersoll Tap After 11pm English” so knew what he meant. I also know “conservative humor” so realize he would have gotten two and a half belly laughs and a slap on the shoulder from the Busch Light local yokel crew.

    Iowa Senate approves traffic camera regulations

    Between that and the supertuck…some of the most boring decisions they’ve made. Downhill is where it’s at.

    Antonio Brown.....yikes.

    Don’t know the situation regarding all his legal issues. Has he done anything that would ensure he doesn’t own a legal firearm? If not, can we all agree he’s crossed that imaginary line where he shouldn’t have one? Or is this a 2A 4-evah situation regardless?

    When trump is deafeated in

    They’ll probably embrace a different loony like MTG. If you don’t know her, she’s the one in this pic in the…….well, I’m not sure.

    No RIP thread for Bob Graham?

    I was on a video call with him a couple years ago and there was this dork just droning the phuck on about their concern of the day which was only tangentially connected to the purpose of the meeting (don’t know why he was there). I looked over at Bob’s Zoom square and he’s out. Like a light...

    When trump is deafeated in

    He announced he was ignoring me a couple times because I used the word simp(s). The thing is, simps doesn’t mean what he thinks it does. He’s a baby.

    Iowa Department of Public Safety releases statement on sports wagering investigation

    I missed all the drama on this. Can somebody give me the cliff notes and why it’s political? Seems like a cut and dried situation of shitty overreach.

    Normal kids walkout of school to protest being bullied by weird animal children.

    So what you’re saying is that they’re trying that in a small town. How’s it going?

    Progress on Hills bird sanctuary...

    I’ve been waiting for this attraction for years…was hoping they’d turn the school into it.

    Holy shit…it’s almost like we planned our posts! Excellent and perfectly timed dumbphuckery my HORTer friend!

    No RIP thread for Bob Graham?

    Bob was a good man. Spoke to him many times over the years. Was definitely sad to hear of his passing but didn’t figure I’d bring it up here since I assumed brainless HORTers only know about the Marxist squad or the freedom caucus.

    Flat tax is going to pass in both Iowa House and Senate

    You make so much more sense to me now. In my experience people go one way or another when they come from nothing and make something of themselves. I know the way you’ve chosen very well. And if you need to ask which way I mean, you’re bad at introspection.

    Is it ethically problematic to tax rich(er) people the same as poor(er) people?

    This I don’t disagree with. I just always wonder why the car example is used. Interest is an often necessary evil that the average consumer really doesn’t fully understand, can not assess the long term impacts of, and normally just takes it in the shorts without even batting an eye. And to...

    Is it ethically problematic to tax rich(er) people the same as poor(er) people?

    I’ve always found this belief interesting and wonder if it comes from how car buying was done in the 70’s/80’s or something. Most of the time you are NOT in a position of power when you go to a dealer and plan to pay cash. As a matter of fact, you’re better off not telling the F&I folks until...

    Can you drive a vehicle with a manual transmission?

    Of course. And I've taught everyone in my household. It's an important skill if for nothing more than to understand how a car / drive train work. I own a lot of vehicles - three of which are manuals. It's getting harder and harder to come by for new ones though. A shame.

    Fresh News From This Board's Favorite "Dem" {marxist} Family!

    He was busy looking up the words to the Marines’ Hymn so he can steal some more valor and missed Whiskey’s post.
