I had no idea what we would be in for. I thought my friends were messing with me. A philadelphia Landscaping Company has been thrust into the national spotlight.

wallstreetbets, what s the story to you? marie i think the story is about a group of idiots. a very large group of idiots. who just got fed up with the world. got fed up with being told go to college, get a job, make a living. frankly, that s not just realistic for our generation. it is really frustrating, the rumors. i think we re lazy. you know the term, pull up your boot straps and work hard? you get the same life as they had? no! the world is very, very different he stays. next pandemic in 2025 my wipe us all out anyways. i don t have time to wait for retirement. you ve got to will it into existence. life is just not fair. the world is a harsh place, and a stock market was just the purest form of yolo. this is populism coming for capitalism for gamestop. on surface, i could be pretty scattered. in the water, though, it s calming for me. you are seeing out of a little hole and everything is quiet. you hear bubbles, you hear breathing. you just hear the water around you

Strip with a crematorium across the street and an adult video and bookstore up the street. there was a level of excitement among our staff that we would be hosting the president s campaign staff here. but that was quickly followed by dread. an obvious screwup in booking, but they all played along and pretended that was the master plan. there are two different theories, really. that i had. that other people had as well. one, i thought that maybe they had someone that thought they could book the four seasons hotel. someone on the campaign made the president think that it was a possibility that it would be held there, and that once he tweeted that, they googled around and found that the closest thing called four seasons to the four seasons philadelphia happened to be this landscaping place.
