Pillow Entrepreneur Hogg Redux
Remember the petulant little asshole, err, budding textile magnate’s run for Mike Lindell’s My Pillow business? We featured it here: https://valorguardians.com/blog/?p=110210. Lindell is dealing with fallout from his support of Trump during the last election, but now at least can allay any fears of competition from Hogg’s progressive start-up. How so? Easy- little David is simply too busy to give his potential business the attention it deserves.
Riiiiight. Poetrooper sends.
David Hogg Says Goodbye to The Pillow Company He Tried to Create
BY MATT MARGOLIS
The writing has been on the wall for months, and I suppose David Hogg finally decided to read it because the 20-year-old activist who sought out to prove that “progressives can make a better pillow, run a better business and help make the world a better place while doing it” has decided to leave his start-up competitor to Mike Lindell’s MyPillow.
“A couple weeks ago, a very spontaneous interaction over Twitter between me and William LeGate led to us trying to start a progressive pillow company,” he said, though actually it was a couple of months ago. “The goal was and still is to create a great pillow that is sustainably produced in domestic unionized factories and have a percentage of those profits benefit progressive social causes. We were met with immediate and overwhelming support. But I soon realized that given my activism, schoolwork, and family commitments, I could not give 100% to being a full time co-founder at Good Pillow.”
Though, as it was clear to anyone who was paying attention as Hogg tried to launch his pillow company, the endeavor was plagued from the start, even though Hogg seemingly gave it all his attention. He made public pleas for ideas and suggestions that felt more like desperate cries for help than legitimate crowdsourcing. Hogg’s partner made a public appeal for a “top tier” graphic designer to design the company’s logo. He offered a mere $200 and demanded the logo in less than two hours so it could be featured in The Washington Post‘s feature story, which was published February 9.
It was like being forced to watch a train wreck, but the media gave the struggling company a ton of free publicity—publicity most companies, particularly start-ups, could only dream about.
Surprised it took as long as it did for Hogg to throw in the towel. Read the entire article here: PJ Media
Thanks, Poe.

So the little Bony Eared Assfish proves once again that he’s all hat and no cattle!
the dude has no hat, no cattle, and no brain.
He is the very model of a modern moron progressive!
Looks like hogg who tried to hogg the pillow industry ran out of steam. I won’t be hogg ish and hogg the comments on the site about hogg so that’s it for now.
This little hogg-y didn’t go to market.
This little hogg-y should’a stayed home.
This little hogg-y had soy-patties.
This little hogg-y got none.
This little hogg-y went “Pee, pee, pee” all over his home.
“This little hogg-y had soy-patties.”
This little hogg-y had soiled panties…
There…I fixed it for ya…
Wonder how much little davie boi paid the dentist to make the bite mark impression that “his” pillow has to go into the finished product design? And who would want a pillow with bite marks anyhow?
Full disclosure. I purchased some of the “My Pillow” pillows. Top shelf product. I do like the queen sized firm better than the standard. The king sized would almost make a mattress for your cot. Haven’t pulled the trigger on the sheets and towels, but I will.
Oh, and another thing…in re of the little snot nosed, lying, brat twerp davie boi…PHUQUE HEEM!
I sleep on one every night. I won’t go on a road trip without My Pillow. There is nothing worse than trying to get comfortable on one of those miserable motel pillows.
This phony little attention whore couldn’t organize a Prog circle jerk, let alone start up a successful business. But I have an idea for his logo, it should include an impression of his bite mark.
“nothing worse than trying to get comfortable on one of those miserable motel pillows.”
Comfort? Who needs comfort to sleep? If you need to be comfortable to sleep then you ain’t tired. Besides, those motel beds/pillows give your immune system a good workout.
Hey, I have logged enough hours sleeping on the ground in the military for almost ten years. When I was a civil war re-enactor for about nine years, I periodically slept on the ground with nothing but a poncho, a sleeping blanket, and a sweaty horse blanket, with my McClellan saddle for a pillow. So now in the “Autumn of my years,” I’m going for comfort. I have traded in my McClellan for My Pillow.
Moreover, I wasn’t one of those guys who could sleep sitting up in the back of a deuce and a half bouncing down a dirt road; I was always amazed by the guys that could.
I have fallen asleep at parade rest and while “walking my post in a military manner” at right shoulder arms. And that was just in AIT! You have to work up to it (3-4 hours of sleep/night), but it can be done.
Did you reenact the food, too? That would be way too much realism for me.
Mrs. Whitey wants a king-size bed for the new house. Might add some pillows to the stack.
TOW, is the Mrs. wanting more play room in y’all’s “playpen”, or are you a bed “hogg”? 😛 (ducks and runs)
Most nights see all four kids in bed with us by sunup. The queen-size no longer cuts it.
May ol’ Poe suggest you probably wanna break that habit before they reach their teens…? 😜😜😜
Poe, right now that’s TOW’s birth control.
Sounds like he needs it…😜
You need a California (ptui!) King size. Anything else will be too small. Either that or put a trundle bed in your master bedroom.
“A California king mattress measures 72 inches wide and 84 inches long. The total sleeping surface of a California king is 6,048 square inches, making it slightly smaller (by 32 square inches) than a king size bed. The California king’s advantage over a standard king, and the main difference in the two sizes, is in its length.”

Is ol’ Poe turning into Hondo?😜
He bit the pillow.
He’s sad that he never had the opportunity to be Harvey Milk’s houseboy.
Sustainable, union produced, socially responsible… how about worrying about whether it’s COMFORTABLE!
You mean you don’t want a fine socialist product like the trabant?
/sarc
MiG Pillow
The TraPillow with built in airbags incase of bad dreams.
Cutting edge of Eastern German socialist technology.

I actually know a guy who RESTORED a Trabbie while working in Budapest and paid to ship it back here. It does indeed take all kinds…
If you put a dual exhaust system on a Trabant, you can use it as a wheelbarrow.
I wasn’t expecting that good a review. Interesting. Thanks.
I was in Germany a couple of years after the wall went own, and I really wanted to see one of the legendary Trabants. Never got to see one (Never got a curry wurst, either). I guess they weren’t allowed in W. Germany.
If you know German, this is one of the funniest bits from Hape Kerkeling, a genius German comedian.
https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=hape+kerkeling+trabant&docid=608002094557261488&mid=422D4D28446D6E1E2416422D4D28446D6E1E2416&view=detail&FORM=VIRE
If you don’t speak German, Hape delivers a Trabi to a guy who ordered it about 10 years before. Real guy. Real order. You almost don’t need to speak the language to appreciate it.
Look at the workmanship and quality control at Trabant!
Too damn funny!
Outstanding. Plus a great soundtrack. Played it again just to listen. What is it?
Tres amusante. Even though my Deutsch is sehr schrecklich I enjoyed that.
Did he trade in the Peugeot? And was the final price of the Trabi 8,000 marks.
Watched it a second time. Even better.
D’oh!
Most likely the real reason for his dropping out of the project was his shortsightedness in not getting his “Good Pillow” product trademarked before announcing his new business to the world.
Someone much sharper than this little pissant did check to see if it had been trademarked and upon discovering that it hadn’t, snapped it up–the day after Hogg’s bravado declaration that he was going after the My Pillow market. That really dumb move by the boy genius tells me this kid isn’t near as sharp as he and his adoring media think he is.
That abysmal mistake, plus discovering that starting your own business is really hard work, were enough to shatter this cocky little prick’s dreams of entrepreneurial grandeur.
Ol’ Poe is rolling in the schadenfreude like a hound with a back itch…😝😝😝
Remember when the little fuck was bragging about his SAT score? I’m hardly the brightest of bulbs, and I exceeded his by over 100 points on the same scale.
That dickhead’s delusions of adequacy are pathetic.
I’m looking forward to him transitioning. I think that is the only attention whoring move left to him. He already looks effeminate anyway. Then he can “marry” that head-shaved dyke he likes to hang with. The MSM would love that scenario. Kimmel couldn’t wait to schedule him.
I do remember that. I dicked around the night prior to the SATs and had an all night Friday the 13th marathon and got a 1590. Guidance counselor couldn’t understand why I wanted to ‘throw it all away and join the military’. 20 years later I retired with a pension AND a graduate degree…and no student loan debt. Maybe, JUST maybe I knew what the hell I was doing.
One of the most worthless human beings that ever existed. Harvard must be proud.
“I’d rather entrust the government of the United States to the first 400 people listed in the Boston telephone directory than to the faculty of Harvard University.”
William F. Buckley Jr.
In spite of Boston’s poor judgement in politicians I still agree with Buckley.
Id like to break both of that punks arms above the elbow!’
While artificial attempts to displace companies from the market due to political stances are worrying, one thing I have noticed in the tech and science sphere that worries me far more is the increasing number of scientists with non-American sounding names.
For example, this article below from Scientific American was written by two physicists named Slava G. Turyshev and Michael Shao, implying Russian and East Asian ethnicities, respectively.
https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/using-the-sun-as-a-cosmic-telescope/
Now, I got no issue with us attracting the science-educated workforce from other countries, that’s a clear win. My fear is that due to woke educational practices, only furriners get to succeed in higher education and reach the upper levels of the American scientific community, abandoning the traditional American value of meritocracy in favor of ethnicism.
This would result in a much smaller pool of professionals, who would be much less effective in their respective fields, not to mention the cultural implications of second and third-order effects. This could be catastrophic in light of the competition we are facing from China, and to a lesser degree, from Russia.
What is an “American” name? Is yours? (Yes) mine? (Yes) my friend formerly from Poland? (Yes) etc (Yes)
You mean real Americans, like all the folks with Italian, Irish, or German names? Sometimes you just make it too easy.
I know quite a few people whose last names come in a variety of asiatic flavors, all of whom bleed red, white, and blue. Not a single one of them votes democrat.
Soooo, Hogg lost a pillow fight?
He got disqualified. He couldn’t stop biting the pillow.
Aww, Hogg turd turned 21 today. Maybe he got My Pillows as a gift.
That would be -so- funny.
Now he’s old enough to buy booze, I wonder how soon he’ll no longer be deemed a useful idiot and get cast away like Sheehag and what’s-its-face?
The only pillows Hogg knows are Phil Monkress’s ass cheeks.
Really, Hogg-boi needs someone to send him a Bag of Dicks®.
Piilow biter, yes. Pillow maker, no. His 15 minutes were up years ago, but he became a-dick eerrr addicted to the fame. Go away, The Left has no more need for you, and nobody else cares about you.
I was looking forward to getting one at the local CO-OP!
His vision of business reminds me of this commercial from the 1980s
Habitually biting the prototypes doomed his desires of entrepreneurship to failure.
I think rather than the pillow he’ll market his own “raised fist butt plug” with that “famous” photo of his raised fist accompanying this article as advertisement.
I hope that the same thing happens to Pedo-Joe and the proggy libtard Drmoncrats.
Fuck Em’.
HARD.
I pray they succeed in failing.
