Get the Four fingers 🆙mug. A "four year promise" is a promise that institution makes for the duration of a client's stay; once the client has left the institution, the promise is no longer heeded.
The phrase originates in the relationships between college administrators and students, which often relies on the student body's short attention span (4 years, or often less) to on-going, systemic issues. This strategy can be used by colleges to make nominal concessions in one policy 'battle,' while patiently waiting for institutional longevity & momentum to win the policy 'war,' often as a result of the passing interest of the student body.
While a "four year promise" refers to an administration's actions, a "four year memory" may refer to the student body's (non) action.

Get the four starmug. A landscaping firm in Philadelphia that also caters as a press conference site for failing election campaigns. Conveniently located next to a crematorium and an adult book store. Not to be confused with the Four Seasons hotel in the same city.
Candidate: Man, I need a place to hold a press conference for my failing campaign.
Campaign staff: Why don't you try the Four Seasons hotel?
Candidate: Nah, they declined. I already said I was gonna hold a press conference there on Twitter.
Campaign staff: Why don't you try Four Seasons Total Landscaping in Philadelphia?
Candidate: You mean that landscaping firm located next to a crematorium and an adult book store?
Campaign staff: Absolutely, it's the best metaphor for your campaign!

Get the four seasons total landscapingmug. A generic term for anyone who flies the Southern Cross, supports Donald Trump, drives a mud-encrusted monster truck, has less than a high school education, and/or actually enjoys sexual relations with family members -- as in Donald Trump's lust for his own daughter.
This stupid fuck at work still believes that Obama is a Muslim who wasn't born in the U.S. That four-toothed cousin-fucker shouldn't be allowed to vote. Or breed.
