The Marriott logo kinda looks like two towers falling over.

A Marriott hotel was literally destroyed in 9/11 too.

[-] mwproductions@lemmy.world 13 points 4 hours ago

I've always assumed this was faked, but based on this article, it really happened.

[-] Mr_Blott@feddit.uk 118 points 7 hours ago

What's the difference between a cow and 9/11

You'd stop milking a cow after 23 years

[-] style99@lemm.ee 2 points 1 hour ago

That is a funny joke, and it'll continue to be funny for the next 500 years (if right-wingers get their way).

The Marriott logo looks like two towers falling over with smoke coming out…

[-] cheddar@programming.dev 53 points 6 hours ago

This is how towers would go down if they didn't collapse straight down due to the explosives planted by Obama.

[-] Twitches@lemm.ee 22 points 5 hours ago

Did Obama have to water them daily so they could grow to be nice and strong?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 26 points 6 hours ago

Whatever. You can't plant explosives on holograms!

Jet fuel can't melt light beams!

[-] frezik@midwest.social 2 points 2 hours ago

What if it's very hard light?

Not with that attitude

[-] JudahBenHur@lemm.ee 2 points 7 hours ago
[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 63 points 7 hours ago

It takes a tragedy anniversary now to get complimentary breakfast? Wow.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 28 points 7 hours ago

What do you think this is, a La Quinta?

[-] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 7 points 4 hours ago

La Quinta: Spanish for “next to Denny’s”

A Mitch Hedberg joke but also a really smart part of their business plan!

[-] Exusia@lemmy.world 10 points 5 hours ago

Wasn't La Quinta responsible? /S

[-] Zachariah@lemmy.world 5 points 2 hours ago

Al’Quinta

[-] Retreaux@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

Underrated pun right here

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Yes. Which is why they provide free scones for 45 minutes.

[-] imakeninjascry@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Not even that. Only half an hour. Hope you wake up on time!

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 32 points 7 hours ago

A 30 minute window for food seems weird, then I checked the article about 9/11 - it’s roughly the same times the first and second tower were struck (8:46 AM & 9:03 AM).

[-] FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io 39 points 7 hours ago

Still weird, trashy, and offensive. How could they possibly think this was a good idea? Putting out things like muffins and other breakfast stuff is standard at any decent hotel, trying to make it into some sort of complimentary muffin tribute though? Wtf Marriott?

[-] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Are you convinced this is real? Are there any other reports of this?

edit: oh what the fuck!

The fun thing is at the Marriott you have to pay for the muffins and breakfast separately!

[-] PenisDuckCuck9001@lemmynsfw.com 9 points 6 hours ago

Somehow it would've not been offensive if the deal lasted all day. If it only counts during the window of time where people were dying in mass, that's unnecessarily fucked up.

[-] EleventhHour@lemmy.world 29 points 7 hours ago

Damn. 23 years later, and dumb shit like this still triggers me.

[-] FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io 21 points 7 hours ago

fReEdOm fRiEs!!1

[-] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 35 points 8 hours ago

Then at lunchtime go to Subway for the Subtember 11th footlong sale.

[-] nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de 23 points 7 hours ago

Where $5 foot longs are now on sale for $11.99, and still aren’t a foot long.

[-] Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 7 hours ago

They're not a foot long. They're a Footlong^TM .

[-] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 hours ago

Like Oreos

“Double Stuf”

Tested it for a project back in the day - they weren’t double 😱

[-] frezik@midwest.social 1 points 2 hours ago

Next, you'll be telling me synthetic motor oil isn't synthetic.

[-] offendicula@fedia.io 6 points 7 hours ago

I laughed. Am I going to hell? Or is it Mariott that's going to hell...

[-] variants@possumpat.io 3 points 7 hours ago

The Marriott in hell has your room reserved

[-] iltoroargento@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 6 hours ago

"Believe it or not, straight to hell."

[-] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

Nah. Truth is stranger than satirical fiction. My comment was stolen from a very famous article from The Onion back in 2013. https://theonion.com/new-subway-promotion-to-honor-subtember-11-1819575535/

[-] lady_maria@lemmy.world 14 points 7 hours ago

For just 30 minutes, no less???

[-] OpenStars@discuss.online 13 points 7 hours ago

Yeah, why not just 11 minutes surrounding 9am? :-P

[-] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 7 hours ago

Yes, grief has to have limits otherwise it's not healthy. You have to get over your loss and continue your life after 30min.

[-] DandomRude@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago
[-] JoShmoe@ani.social 6 points 7 hours ago

And for a limited time only, get your freedom loving Red White and Blue muffins!
