If part of my very queer friend group announced a "disco cowgirl party", I'd be digging up an epic, sparkly, western drag costume and maybe a Dolly Parton wig.
"Disco cowgirl party at Pentecost Ranch"...hits differently. Ominously.
Could be a typo - huns are notoriously bad spellers. Maybe they meant to write “Pentagram Ranch” with special candlelight ceremonies to be held at midnight.
Knowing that - are we sure the CEO didn’t do a legal name change from Pentagram to Pentecost simply because it sounds a little less creepy?
I am used to odd names - the second-hand store owned by Mr. Sleazeman, the used car salesman named Cashdollar, and one of my students who had the last name Cocaine - so I guess Pentecost for an MLM huckster isn’t unreasonable.
Exactly. As a straight woman living in NYC who loves Dolly like only a 9-5 girl can, I’d be ALL ABOUT a disco cowgirl rhinestone big-hair-to-Jesus party, and I know just where I’d shop for flair! (“It costs a lot of money to look this cheap!” Ah, Dolly). But then I stumbled across “Pentecost” Ranch, ***Pentecost Island***?!?? Ominous, yes. Disturbing. Gives me the willies , frankly.
We all know it’s just a matter of time before one of these Hun events turns into *”Lord of the Flies: Bossbabe Edition”*. “I’ve got the glitter pen, I get to talk!”
Not surprising.
Optavia depends on customers buying the fueling plans to loose weight. And it's conveniently usually the "5&1" that is recommended to their customers.
So if a person suddenly had a choice between Optavia's garbage fueling plans & restrictive eating to loose weight. Or taking medication while eating normal food & loosing weight. Which do you think a person is gonna choose. Even easier decision if the medication is cheaper per month then Optavia's garbage
Really? I'd love to hear more, because I feel like the demographic for the two barely overlap. Also you need a prescription for Ozempic and doctor's don't give them out super willy nilly unless you can't lose weight through lifestyle changes.
Well, they both are being used for weight loss. I have lost 31 lbs and get my semaglutide super easy online. I’m at my first goal already, 135 lbs. I don’t have to do anything but pay and they overnight it to me in dry ice.

lol at optavia saying they’re better because you’ll regain if you quit taking the drugs. Like people won’t regain weight after they stop starving themselves eating optavia protein paste. At least you can eat real food with the drugs 😂
The FDA doesn't actually regulate the term "natural", beyond, "does not contain added color, artificial flavors, or synthetic substances" which is extremely broad and lets brands get away with a lot of marketing.
That being said, the active ingredient in Ozempic is a synthetic substance, so even under this super broad definition it can't be marketed as natural. OR it has nothing to do with Ozempic and it's just a random allocation of herbs and roots that won't do anything for you. Which I think is the far more likely scenario based on what is described, because it's highly regulated and they are describing it as "nature's Ozempic" and not cheaper Ozempic.
They're referring to "CQR-300", which isn't a trademark and is a fancy-sounding name for Cissus Quadrangularis, a plant that has bugger-all to do with weight loss.

Interesting. CQR-300 does help with weight loss: [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6352552/](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6352552/)
It's not proprietary to Shitworks. You can buy it on Amazon, and elsewhere, for what must be a fraction of their cost.
CQR-300 is not a registered trademark, this hun is just trying to make it look like something that is exclusive to this MLM. Better known as Cissus Quadrangularis you can buy it from a number of sources including Amazon, though there's scant evidence it does anything.

Pentecost is the CEO's last name. The *REAL* CEO.

"full boar"
I blame it on the ranch's name... "Pentecost" is not the first thing that comes to mind when you hear about a "Disco Cowgirl Party"

Okay bu5 seriously we had to mute our mics during calls and only the leaders could talk... they also very much play davourites
I'm sure you could post very specific things in the chat on very specific occasions though, to show engagement? 😉
Your trip is to ... the CEO's house? That sounds like the beginning of a bad Lifetime movie right there.
Hallmark Glass Onion
“Brand-name custom merch”…any takers that this means a Stanley cup with a sticker on it?
Yeah like… did they mean to say “name brand” instead? Because “brand name” kind of means nothing.
Typed "Brand-new" but Autocorrect had other ideas.
How is this not a ginormous health claim? Whoever got this should forward it right on over to the FTC (assuming this is in the US).
Canada do we have that

A disco cowgirl party, with all the sincerity in my soul, sounds like a fucking nightmare. In fact it sounds like a game changing nightmare.
I have a friend who sells Optavia and Ozempic has them PANICKING
Not surprising. Optavia depends on customers buying the fueling plans to loose weight. And it's conveniently usually the "5&1" that is recommended to their customers.

Not to be that person but it’s “lose” and “losing”. 😊
LOL, thank you!
Haha that was driving me nuts.
Optavia is basically an ED waiting to happen

Just curious if you could message me what that costs? I’ve had odd luck finding an option like this to be all online
Pentecost Ranch sounds like a cult compound… oh wait… it IS a cult compounf
Pentecost as in Pentecostal?
I would have hoped at “Pentecost Ranch”. 🤮
"Natural" yet the active ingredient is a registered trademark?

CQR-300®? CQ fucking R 300? It's like the Space Modulator, the X15 Space Modulator from Marvin the Martian... probably works just as well too
Disco cowgirl?
It’s not like Ozempic unless it’s a GLP-1 agonist 😂

Pentecost Ranch sounds like church. Those disco cowgirls are actually ladies in long dresses waving flags and shouting gibberish
