A very sturdy, heavy tool. A cross between the words "man" (humanity as a whole) and "anvil" (a hard and massive block of stone or metal used as a support for chiseling and hammering).
You'd need a crane and a bulldozer to get that ugly manvil up the stairs.

A place in Waukon, Iowa where gay boys get each other in the butt. They use women as a cover up, but we all know the truth. They think they are better than everyone else, but really they are nothing. They walk around like their shit don't stink. There is nothing cute about them or their little fantasy world called "Manville" which should be called "Fagville."
Hey! Lets go down to Manville... I mean Fagville!

5. The Valley
6. Clairmont

The North Side is known for having a majority of Manville's schools including Manville High School, Roosevelt School, Alexander Batcho Intermediate School, and Chirst the King..which all suck at all sports except Track and Field.

The Valley is known for its constant flooding.

Other than that, the town is just another dot on the map.

manvision 

A visual and sensory input dysfunction common in men, but may also be present in women. This dysfunction can cause an individual not to see what is right in front of them. In some cases they may still not "see" it even once it's pointed out to them. Example: Man: "If it ain't broke don't fix it." "Woman: this is where it is broken." Man: "I'm not seeing what you're seeing." This can be applied to anything from household chores, to big things.
My landlady's maintenance man didn't see the puddle of water on the counter as an issue. When I told my landlady about the leak, she asked if I told him about it, as it was the first she was hearing of it. I said yes, but that he has manvision. Right away she said, I know what that is. I'll talk to him.
