Bite My Pillow?

Last week I told you about former teen and current gun-grabber David Hogg starting his own pillow company to take down My Pillow founder Mike Lindell. You can almost see the cartoon thought-balloon over Hogg’s adorable little head: “Hey, if a crazy crackhead can become a multimillionaire by making pillows, how tough can it be?” Unfortunately, young Mr. Hogg is quickly discovering exactly how tough it can be. And thanks to the modern miracle of Twitter, we can watch him sink into a pit of disillusioned despair in real-time.

Among appealing gestures, the “Good Pillow:”
Has as its filling scraps of paper on which are written excerpts of Hogg’s profuse vulgarity while proclaiming the need to control another instrument.
Additionally, the filling of the pillow has a fragrance that indicates it was set on fire of Hell.
The covering of the pillow is made of a shallow material known to be offensive to defenders of the 2nd Amendment.
The pillow slopes to the Left thereby stiffing any sounds coming from the Right.
The pillow is certified for use in crisis situations in leading universities, such as when a conservative has been allowed to speak to an audience.
The “Good Pillow” is inscribed with a verse from a Bile version which says “Blessed are they which call evil good.” (Ignor. 6:66)
This pillow is assured free advertising from all unbiased news sources such as CNN, and others so certified as such by Wikipedia.
Bite My Pillow?

If I remember correctly... Roseanne Barr’s awakening occurred when she tried to raise and run a strawberry farm. Nothing like the harsh cold blast in the face of reality, to ruin liberal notions. Of course this kid doesn’t strike me as the type to learn much of anything at all.
Hogg's delusional (though unintentionally entertaining) twitter screeds suggest he thought starting up a textile factory with union labor was as simple as ordering takeout food. He really thought he'd have millions in sales in under a month and be able to knock MyPillow out of the pillow game just like that. It's exactly the type of unmoored reality that I'd expect from a teenager who hasn't worked in the real world.
My bet is that once he finds out how much effort and organization it takes to start a company and bring a product to market, he'll find a way to virtue signal himself into a different gig, probably with great fanfare and hubris and more adoring media coverage.
I know that joke!
Can’t help it! You’re post just made me think of... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XG-mj0Wc3Ws
He’d be better off marketing caskets. That way he could bury his ideas in them.
Especially since he proclaimed they would be Union made, before even researching if any factory in the US is even set up to make pillows now, has available capacity, would agree to make them for you, what they would charge per pillow, shipping costs, etc.
He just likely blurted out “I’m gonna make Union made pillows in the USA” to the word, then to his biddies, said “OK, now what how soon can we make them?”
Yep. He’s gonna be in for a rude awakening when he realized he gonna have unsustainable work rules set by the various unions involved. It’s not just going the be the people sewing and their union, but the dock workers union, janitor union, maintenance worker union, electrician union, etc. will all want their piece.
The sewing machine worker is not gonna be able to get more fabric, they will have to call someone else to move the cart to bring more, the maintenance union to fix the jam, etc.
That's because he's a DIM-BULB LIBERAL
Hogg would have a better chance of succeeding if he decided to COMPETE against Tom Brady to see if he could WIN more Super Bowl rings than Brady has.
For those that may NOT know... Mike Lindell has been in business since 2004.
From 2004 to 2009, My Pillows were sold through Lindell's Night Moves Minnesota, LLC, and have been sold through My Pillow, Inc. since 2009.
My Pillow has sold over 41 million pillows, due mostly to TV infomercials. The company started with five employees in 2004 and had 1,500 employees by 2017.
Probably closer to 2000 employees now with the additional products added to the product line in the last 3 years.

This is hilarious. I could design a better logo in 2, maybe 3 hours tops, using freaking Irfanview and LibreOffice. It’d go even better and faster if I brushed up on CorelDraw or Adobe Illustrator. (IF my old(!) CorelDraw program will even run on Win XP or later!) (Yeah, it might take some serious brushing up...)
My HS age daughter could probably run rings around me (she was doing a lot of computer based drawing and graphics for a while.)
I’m no graphics artist either: Just an old fart who’s tooted around on computers, doing various useful things, for a long time.
Yep. Just wait until he finds out how much machinery costs. Plus, the cost of materials. Plus, the cost to rent or buy a manufacturing plant and keep it running. Plus, wages and benefits for the workers. And on and on.
LOL when he said, "...it might take us a month, it might take us two months. Maybe three, even."
He doesn't know how to make a pillow, yet he believes he can start a pillow company in three months that will compete with all the other pillow makers who have much more experience. You're right, he really has no clue how the real world operates, and he'll probably never know. Then again, because he's a leftist activist, his crowd will celebrate anything he says and does. He'll always get a pat on the back, no matter what. He'll always enjoy a certain privilege that most other people don't have.
You hit it on the head. Besides the fact he doesn’t even have prototype pillow, he first has to design a pillow, make a small batch for testing, repeat as needed. Then figure out who(if anyone can make it...can’t be CA, has to be union, etc) can make it meeting you specs, what will it cost to make, retail price, etc. Then get it in production plus set up all the back office accounting, ordering, shipping, supply chain, etc. needs.
That’s not really a logo they made. They just took a stock starry night pic and threw some stock font text on top with weird simley emoji at the end.
A logo show look good on a letter head on plain white paper or business card. With the back background and white text you are forced to try to print essentially a big black square to make half the logo visible.
That’s what you get when a DIY logo is “fixed” by a “top-tier” graphic designer you gave 2 hrs to fix and paid only $200.
he’d be better off starting a party balloons business with all that hot air he spews...
If they paid $200 for THAT, they got ripped off.
(Or maybe doing technical work was just a poor career choice by me, and I should have gone into graphics design?)
How much of his own money does he intend to invest in his Jolly Venture? Oh What ? He is using OPM’s???
Other Peoples Money - of course.
It would’ve been hilarious if some conservative graphic designer offered to help and fixed it by adding word art to it or something like that. Camera hog will be too stupid to realize how hideous it looks and use it.
