VERY satisfying shopping trip yesterday, seeing My Pillow prominently displayed at the entrance of Ocean State Job Lot, the place that pays 2 cents on a dollar to floundering businesses & passes the savings to us regular folk, although Rindell's mug accompanied the display....

Looks like 'self-digestion' from here. The merchandise was bought and paid for by retailers who now have to dump it because of local, partisan political vindictiveness. Local stores got stuck by their own folks. Lindell, made his money and in about 40 states is doing quite well because sentiments in other localities seeing him as a persecuted figure.

They are buying more. This is exactly why boycotts don't achieve desired effects unless they have universal and overwhelming support. Back-lash always takes up the slack; sometimes 'and then some'.

If "they" were buying "more", it wouldn't be on tbe shelves of Ocean State Job Lot!

@AnneWimsey That is very accurate in whatever Left-wingland that happens to sport the resale house. I live in California and they also seem to think the rest of the country sees things within a West Coast frame of reference. They even believe that a majority of eligible voters in 'swing states' cast ballots for Joseph Biden as they probably did here.

Not only is the boycott not driving Lindell out of business; there's a mild backlash against some retailers for dropping his merchandise counter-balancing some of it. Anyone avoiding his products for political partisanship reasons abandoned them long before the vindictive boycott. Those who did patronize him are motivated to do it more now. That is how failed boycotts work.

@Silver1wun wow, you Really luv drumpy.......

@AnneWimsey I don't love any politician nor any other people I hire to work for me; though I trust the latter a great deal more. I'm a California resident and realist who doesn't agree with either political side completely, though these days the traditionalists are making a lot more sense. I'm registered as a Democrat, but that doesn't make me a bullshit addict. There's plenty to go around on both sides.

I'm a Kinetologist and see things on the bases of what actions take place because what happens discloses 'what is'. Labels applied by self or adversaries are seldom accurate. In fact, labels are at best confusing and at worst misleading. Group, off the shelf, thought is no thought at all. It is a recipe and final product of one person, adopted by others who are too lazy to articulate their own thought systems and too timorous to disagree with fellow customers.

I still wouldn't buy one of his pillows. I have not shopped at Home Depot since I learned they were big contributors to trump's 2020 reelection campaign.

Bobby Rydell is selling My Pillow? LOL Mike Lindell. It's okay. His name should not be memorable. I'd rather sleep with my head on a rock than buy one of his fucking pillows. @bobwjr You remember this one? Stomping ground from my youth.

Okay, fixed. And thank for the lyrics to a song unfamiliar to me, now I can karaoke it

@AnneWimsey Philly, NJ, DE and Jersey Shore people know this. Very provincial.

@barjoe every summer two weeks with the grandparents and our family in Stone Harbor, evenings on the boardwalk at Wildwood! Until my family moved to Europe in 1959. About six years ago I took a girlfriend to Cape May. I didn’t fall in love, but I had the best creamed chipped beef I have ever tasted! 😁

@Barnie2years Shit on a shingle. Everything tastes better down the shore. Do you remember Moore's Inlet? Cozy Morley had a club with his name right across the street. Bobby Rydell still lives in South Philly.

@barjoe I was just a kid when we were going down there. Rarely have been back since. Cape May was just a weekend a couple of times years ago.

@Barnie2years Wildwood NJ. 1960s Summer Stompin stomping ground for working class people from Philly. Cape May and Avalon were for the rich people. Today only rich people can buy shore property. All the motels were converted to condos. Rentals start at $2K/wk. Poor people used to be able to go to Wildwood. No more.

@barjoe That's why we always rented a place in Stone Harbor with my grandparents. I almost drowned there, got caught in a whirlpool, slammed me into the sand face first, but then left go. One of those things you don't forget. But we would go to Wildwood for the boardwalk fun most evenings. Lots of Lancaster people used to go to Stone Harbor. Now they head further south. My in-laws always went to Rehoboth, most of her mom's family had summer places, mobile homes, down there. My son's in-laws rent a place down in Hatteras. I think Jersey got too expensive, you have to pay to use the beaches. Most the people I worked with had places down near Ocean City, MD.

@Barnie2years Wildwood is the only city that doesn't require beach tags. Rentals are expensive though. My parent used to rent a cottage $100/wk and our whole extended family used to stay. Times change.

@barjoe I am not a sun and beach person, so it doesn't really affect me. My parents live in Florida after they retired on the Gulf coast. I would go down for two or three weeks, I would spend one Florida day, go to the beach and hand out at the pool. The rest of the time I just hung around the house. LOL
