To think the Four Seasons Total Landscaping farce is the funniest thing to have happened in 2020

I’m still laughing about this.

Trump’s people thought they were booking the Four Seasons hotel in Philadelphia for his big presser yesterday, and it turned out to be the Four Seasons Total Landscaping parking lot between a dildo store and a crematorium where Rudy Giuliani had to then speak. Surreal, but yet somehow a fitting end to the last 4 years of buffoonery.

'Bored of the Rings', surely?

(If you've not come across it, it's a - shall we say scurrilous - parody of Lord of the Rings. Written in the late '60s and still available on Kindle and even Audible!)

@MoiraNotRuby

Hilarious. I liked the tweet saying they are stuck between a cock and a charred place.
I'll need my own spot in the crem if they keep this up. Dying here!

I particularly liked the Trump Pence posters they had hastily taped up in a valiant attempt to cover up what looked like a garage door behind the podium. I can imagine them scrabbling around trying to find some blu tac and enough posters to cover what was in camera shot.

Poor Giuliani, first he gets framed for trying to tuck his shirt into his trousers and now this.

Apparently they needed somewhere republicans friendly in a democrat town, they have a speech a day or do before & a DH set up next to them & played Beyoncé so loud the press couldn’t hear the press conference 😂
The DJ drowning them out I believe, that they actually chose that car park - not so much 😂

GabsAlot · 08/11/2020 15:43

poor guilani? nah dont feel sorry for him

Gmom · 08/11/2020 15:43

The Guardian article says that the wonders of Four Seasons said "For those interested in purchasing shirts, our website will have a merchandise tab uploaded by Monday morning, just bear with us! Go Birds!”

So I'm waiting to buy a T-shirt directly from them to support them as I'm sure they're catching lots of flak but what they did was brilliant.

Still available? I remember that from my teens. Wasn't it "Fritto Bugger" who was the hero?

@ancientgran

Maybe I'm soft but I'm worrying about some junior who was given this task and is going to get hell for the mix up.
My money's on Eric as the booker
ancientgran · 08/11/2020 15:50

Should I worry about Eric? I don't actually know anything about him.

nancy75 · 08/11/2020 15:52

You don’t need to worry about Eric, he’s too thick to know the car park was a fuck up

ancientgran · 08/11/2020 16:00

That's OK then. I'm not sure I can take on worrying about anymore people, I wish I wasn't a worrier. I make lists in my head about who I'm going to share the money with if I win the lottery, not that I do it and that is even madder. People make my list when I don't even know them, like friends of my kids or a hairdresser who told me she is struggling with childcare. The nuns did a good job on me with Catholic guilt, I feel guilty and about anything and everything.

midlifecrash · 08/11/2020 16:26

Oh I've just read that Trump announced it was going to be the Four Seasons (meaning hotel) but the hotel refused the booking - so they had to cast around desperately for somewhere else called the Four Seasons, and book that instead....

That's even better

Gingernaut · 08/11/2020 17:55

I'm guessing the Four Seasons took one look at the news and though 'Fuck that!'

All the BLM protesters, the Antifa rioters, the 'Stop the Steal' zombies and the armed Proud Boys could have potentially landed in the car park and cost them a massive amount in damages and security.

Covid-19 has caused bookings to plummet, the last thing they need is for the few people who are there to leave on safety grounds.

HowManyToes · 08/11/2020 18:08

I've been trying to find the try I saw last night but I can't. Anyway it read something along the lines of:

"how apt the press conference was held between a dildo shop and a crematorium when millions of American have just told trump and his cronies to go fuck themselves and die"

This guy wins the internet

LadyWithLapdog · 08/11/2020 18:10

Shame the owners are trumpers as they are starting T shirts to cash in on this.

PerkingFaintly · 08/11/2020 18:52

Don't know where you got the idea the owners are Trumpers, LadyWithLapdog.

Four Seasons Total Landscaping is a family-owned small business run by life long Philadelphians. We were honored to be asked to host a press conference at our facility. We thank all of those that have shown support for our business and while we understand the negative comments, it saddens us that we have received such harsh judgement. Our team at Four Seasons would have proudly hosted any presidential candidate’s campaign at our business. We strongly believe in America and in democracy. We hope that our fellow Americans can join together and support all local small businesses during this time.
For those interested in purchasing shirts, our website will have a Merchandise tab uploaded by Monday Morning, just bear with us!

I could not love this whole story more if I tried. Everything about this is just beautiful.

God it's brilliant.

It's been a good week for laughs. Now this and a couple of days ago:

PerkingFairly - I’m not on Twitter so thanks for that. It was from a previous old post where they wanted the democrats sorted (not in a violent way!) but these ones sound ok, especially the FB one which is very measured.

kursaalflyer · 08/11/2020 19:43

Have been laughing all afternoon. Some extremely funny people on Twitter

PerkingFaintly · 08/11/2020 19:54

Ah could well be a spoof Twitter account then.

It is suPERB, whatever it is.

They don't do Twitter.

All the Four Seasons Total Landscaping accounts are fake or parody.

Told a lie.

I followed the on Facebook and they've just put this up.
