What in the good damn
Guys a bit of a weirdo, but I think his success holds some merit. At least he's open about his past, but I don't think that provides a good judge of character.
Say what you will about his character, but his pillows are damn comfortable.
Always considered buying one. Worth it?
I think so, especially compared to my old ones. They're pricey, but I think you can get them cheaper if you can find single full sized ones at a department store like Kohls.
Is it even possible to just go cold turkey on decades of extreme crack cocaine addiction and consumption and not die from stress?
i saw the entire tv ad that is 2 minutes long of this dude. I had no idea what in the fuck was going on when i looked at it and thought it was some weird tv show or something i caught when i woke up:

Funny how the filling he uses looks like a pile of cocaine.
TIL drug dealers can be surprisingly nice guys
They can't sell their shit to dead people
Saw a commercial for these things a week or so ago while sitting in a waiting room. I've been considering getting one, actually, considering my memory foam one is so worn out that I have to fold it over itself to get any decent support.
Cool to see a genuine success story, though. You always assume that products hawked on TV like this are garbage, but this guy always seemed legit.
... Then again, I bought my daily-driver coffee mug off a banner ad, so what do I know.
The guy is an avid trump supporter.
Trump, you know, the guy who is okay with giving drug dealers the death penalty.
This guy having had his life saved by a bunch of drug dealers.
I've got one, and it doesn't seem too much more comfortable than any other pillow I've used, personally. It's not bad or uncomfortable or anything like that, but I probably wouldn't have bought one on my own.
I was going to get a My pillow but last time I checked, it had pretty bad reviews on Amazon.
It's just that he's successfully spread his brand name that gets people to buy it and automatically assume it's somehow the best. The pillow is just a pillow, it's not harry potter magic.
Exactly my thoughts. The one I've got was given to me, so while I don't really have any complaints about it, I'd probably not buy one.
Crack isn't physically addictive, so yes. At worst he'll just get cravings but he'd be more likely to die "from stress" if he continued doing crack.
You can buy my pillow in walmart for 60 bucks, thats a steal. It feels like a regular pillow.
They're ok, form well and you don't need to double up on pillows for support since one is enough. However, it is pretty lumpy, though I suspect that's due in part to the type of fluff they use or whatever.
