This confusing slogan was left on our doorknob the other day: "We Take Care of Your Lawn. Not Your Neighbor!" Huh? The flyer arrived shortly after one of our neighbors sold his lawn care business, but we don't think these expensive-looking glossy door-hangers were printed just for our block.
My best guess is that the company means to imply its service will make our lawn look so good, our neighbors will be jealous.
I don't really need any more negative vibes coming from my neighbors, thank you.
I received one of those flyers, too. When I viewed the flyer, I thought, "I want my neighbors' yards to look nice. Nice yards help beautify the neighborhood and increase my home value." Needless to say, I did not call for a quote.

What a bizarre slogan. Maybe they were just going for weird.

Where is Lynne Truss when you need her?

That makes no sense at all. One first reading I thought it was 'take care of' as in murder.
