Looks like my man just earned himself a new nickname. If he grew up around the people I did, no one would ever call him anything but Lumpy. ( With the exception of Lumpy Asshole on more formal occasions) ---

We can combine the names of his friend’s social media platform, and of one of Wally’s friends from _Leave it to Beaver_, to create the nickname “Lumpy Trutherford.” ---

> [@Darren\_Garrison](#): > > I browsed through a bit of them. At one point he asked them how they could sleep at night with the way they were treating them, then said that they obviously don’t have one of his MyPillows. That’s almost clever, apart from the fact that it’s the wrong way round. If he had said “if you sleep well, you must _have_ a MyPillow” then I’d be applauding. ---

I read it as “Because they don’t have a mypillow they CAN sleep” ---

> [@bobot](#): > > Looks like my man just earned himself a new nickname. If he grew up around the people I did, no one would ever call him anything but Lumpy. “Lumpy Lindell” is nicely alliterative. I’m guessing his lawyer will be trying to keep a muzzle on him for any further court dates. ---

The context for the comment: > He’s being asked about his email account and how random company complaints are dealt with versus people actually trying to hop on and chat about the latest wingnut theory about Trump having really won 80 percent of the vote or something. The attorney characterizes the company complaints as people writing in about “lumpy pillows” and this drives Lindell absolutely ballistic. > **[Mike Lindell Goes Absolutely Bonkers Over 'Lumpy Pillows' In Video Deposition...](https://abovethelaw.com/2023/09/mike-lindell-deposition-lumpy-pillows/)** > > Let's all watch a man have a full on meltdown over lumpy pillows. ---
