Is anyone as sick as I am of "My Pillow" commercials?

[Motley13]

He must be making $$$ to put on so many

[Dennis Donovan]

1. Yes, but there's an interesting back story to Mike Lindell

https://www.cnbc.com/2017/09/20/how-mypillow-founder-went-from-crack-addict-to-self-made-millionaire.html

Mike Lindell says there aren't many crack addicts who've become successful, but he's one of them.

"It can be done, people," he laughed.

The self-made multimillionaire and infomercial superstar created the MyPillow empire from scratch in 2004. He did it while addicted to drugs. "People say all the time that's one of the biggest miracles ever."

He's been clean and sober for over eight years, but his path from rags to riches — and almost back to rags — is an amazing American success story.

It is also one long, strange trip.

7. He's also a Trumpanzee who made false claims about the benefits of his pillows.

The TV informercial star and newly declared Donald Trump supporter settled a lawsuit brought by the District Attorney of Alameda County accusing the company of making false claims that the pillow could treat insomnia, sleep apnea, and fibromyalgia.

For roughly $1 million in civil penalties, the Minnesota-based company settled accusations that it lacked "competent and reliable scientific evidence" to support claims that the pillow could treat serious health conditions, including temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. The state also claimed that while My Pillow said it was selected as "the official pillow of the National Sleep Foundation," it failed to disclose its financial ties with the sleep advocacy organization.

2. Not as much as I was of the "Head On" commercials

[dhol82]

3. Also, the product is just foam pebbles.

You can scrunch it up because it’s a bunch of bee bees in a pillow case.

Also, he is a trump supporter. That’s what I heard and that makes him dead to me.

[gordianot]

6. He is a Trump supporter and his pillows are over priced trash.

[brewens]

10. Consumer Reports didn't like his pillows but I think it was more of an informal

survey of staff. The staff that bought those were not impressed. I and my girlfriend have another companies memory foam pillows and they are really nice.

[Weed Man]

18. Look at his commercial

and his blatant use of the cross.

[Wellstone ruled]

4. He is a real A--Hole in real life.

But,he sure do love the Shithead in the White House.

[jpak]

5. His prominent crucifix is annoying

To me anyway

[Arkansas Granny]

11. Yep. Also, does he own more than that one blue shirt?

[jmowreader]

30. Did you ever see Norm Abram's "The New Yankee Workshop"?

He loves to wear plaid shirts, and the Internet joke was he only has one shirt...so one day he showed his "closet" off...he opened the door and the closet was full of nothing but plaid shirts.

[Arkansas Granny]

34. I remember Norm from the days when Bob Vila hosted "This Old House".

I was disappointed when they cancelled NYW.

[jrthin]

12. I thought I was the only one

Turned off by that.

[Motley13]

8. My neighbor blew $ on them & while taking care of her cats, I checked them out

they don't seem such a big deal. I have a down pillow, which I love & I do have to fluff it up, seems to be very little trouble

[Capperdan]

23. I like mine

Didn't know he is an asshole, but i do like the pillow, really has helped my sleep.

[SwissTony]

9. Just interested...was he actually a crack addict? nt

[longship]

13. He always looks like he's beating off with his fucking pillow.

(Pun intended.)

And that has to be the fucking worst fucking jingle ever.

[mahina]

14. The ones I could really do without are the catheter ones.

Really do not enjoy the mental pics that come along with that one.

[Skittles]

20. have you noticed they say the word catheter, like, a dozen times

[mahina]

21. Right? I cringe every time.

Poor guy.

[Skittles]

22. what about that old gal

didn't she get, like, shot or something?

[Sailor65x1]

15. Perhaps you long for the nostalgic days

of Head-on?

[Golden Raisin]

16. Almost as much as 1-877-Kars-4-Kids.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

17. Ohhh, the things I miss by not having a TV.

[Skittles]

19. I have one, I like it, but I don't watch much TV

so I don't see him very often

[DashOneBravo]

27. Ive been thinking about getting one

How long have you used it?

[Skittles]

28. over a year

I think it feels nice

[DashOneBravo]

29. Thats good

Mine go flat in about two hours and I spend half the night readjusting it. Or pulling other ones over and stacking them.

[Skittles]

31. I like a variety of pillows

I don't use the same one every night

[Ohiogal]

24. He is just too syrupy and annoying

I'm not surprised he's a Trumpanzee.

[Fla Dem]

25. I listen to sirius xm a lot and the one I hate is the Zyppah commercial.

The guy is sooo annoying.

[EffieBlack]

33. I HATE those commercials!

I grab for the radio to change the station whenever they come on...

[lindysalsagal]

26. Yes. Have one. Don't use it. Too lumpy.

[MFM008]

32. I don't like it.

Bamboo pillows are better.

[patricia92243]

35. He provides jobs here in the USA, so I say talk on.

[MissMillie]

36. I'm sick of all commercials

I swear we get--in a one-hour show--20 minutes of TV.
