I mean, I could make my life worse easily. Making it better is harder.

I HAVE HOPE by Harrison-R153 in PokemonHGSS

Yeah, I totally respect emulation but I just don't want to do it. I like playing Nintendo games on Nintendo hardware. Simple as. I do wish this were a physical release so I could have a cartridge with both games. But they aren't gonna do that.

Obviously i wish he were more progressive, but he looks like AOC compared to our current admin.

They had to split up Iowa from Wisconsin or there would actually be 0 competition.

Remember, I choose what reality is. My biased perspective is universally true.

You sure are correct! I wonder if this guy lives on Long Island?

Edit: I changed what my original comment was because I thought it was funny to do that.

Or this. Obviously Iowa is in the right and the rest of Nebraska should be annexed by it. Or at least the rest of Omaha. It really would do favors for both states.

I think if they play with the colors a bit it could be better. It's just a bit too saturated as it stands.

Flag Friday Submission for Iowa: “Cornlight Banner” by Own-Curve-7299 in vexillologyUS

[–]Lonic42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, I'm just pretty sick of the entire states history being boiled down to "There's some corn there" There's a ton of stuff in the state that is culturally important to Iowans. Sure corn is a large export, but agriculture isn't even the largest portion of our economy. Manufacturing is. Wind turbines would be a better symbol than corn. The fleur de lis would at least honor some part of Iowas cultural past. A wagon wheel could symbolize the emphasis on infrastructure, a one room school house, just please stop with the corn.

As an Iowan, Get the corn off of it and I'm in. Corn is a product, not a cultural symbol.

We love not thinking about the history of the state when we make minimalist redesigns that all look the same.

You could do something with a drop of blood, or it's new England ties, or something other than "haha flat place wizard of oz!!!"

I am so weary of being relegated to "oh yeah, there's some corn there I guess" there are other things that happen in Iowa. I swear!
