James McD. Making Me Sick...

[DomWackTroll]

...with his Facebook crooning to wife Stacy. This time it's Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight."

FB friend Marjorie seems as desperate for relief as I am when she pleads, "No one doubts how much you love her!" Then someone calls James "Slow Hand" and I vomit a little in my mouth as I can't block the images of him "using essential oils intimately" and "applying them directly" to Stacy's "sensitive areas."

I'm sure James and Stacy would reply to this by calling me a perv who pries into their personal lives, even though they have willingly plastered the nauseating details of their sex rituals all over their blog and FB pages.

Stacy actually cracks me up. Every time she posts something about the intimate use for oils or some other sex related topic (and there are a lot), she prefaces it with a disclaimer that it is only for adult and discerning eyes practically guaranteeing that everyone is going to read it. She’s like the go to for fundie soft porn (head on over to Lori for your fundie S&M fix :P ).

Simultaneously LMAO and barfing.

For a group that are so hung up on modesty and who decry 'raunch culture' (I'm sure that they would condemn every second ad on the telly for being too explicit), they're awfully brazen.

I don't know anyone who feels the need to post the details of their sex life on a public facebook page, and I have some friends who are as far from Fundy-approved as you can get.

At least he didn't sing "Lay Down Sally".

From "Your Sacred Calling:" "WARNING: The intended audience for this post is married women. While I have attempted to present the topic of intimacy and essential oils with discretion, please enter at your own risk."

Oh yes, Stacy's patented recurring brag - "Neener-neener, I'm married and get to crow about my great sex life, but all you poor Season Of Singleness girls had better not read this, because that wouldn't be proper! or ladylike! or Biblical!"

Nothing like promoting a caste system within the church, huh, Stace?

[Koala]

You know that uncomfortable feeling when you're embarrassed for someone??? Yeah, that's the one... :?

[DomWackTroll]

At least he didn't sing "Lay Down Sally".

...or "Let It Grow." *shudder*

[ladyamylynn]

I just read Stacy's blog post- all I can say is good lord, that's a LOT of different smells happening there. What kind of stank is she trying to cover up? And how greasy must her sheets be? Also, can you imagine being the poor hotel maid cleaning up a post-honeymoon room slathered in oil? So many questions, none of which I actually want the answers to!

[Jasmar]

...or "Let It Grow." *shudder*

Or "Lay Lady, Lay"

Applying EOs directly to sensitive skin and mucous membranes? I am not remotely going to take advice from someone who advocates that. That's risking chemical burns.

YIKES.

Not only for adults, but for women, and not all women, only MARRIED women. She'd have a heard attack if I told her my sexual history includes men in the double digits, and more if you count not going for a home run, and even more if you count the people without penises. And I'm not ashamed of any of it.

So the thought that only MARRIED would should know anything cracks me up.

[kjrsg]

If I remember correctly, isn't "Wonderful Tonight" supposed to actually be about the downside to dating a beautiful woman, in that she's always obsessed with her appearance?

[DomWackTroll]

OMG... :lol: Must see to believe...

Edited to fix link; really having trouble with it.

ETA: Why am I having so much trouble with this link? It's the photo of James and Stacy standing in front of a huge essential oil bottle on James' Facebook page. The end of the link keeps getting cut off.

it works! that is hilarious. where the does the company keep that thing in between shows? Do they haul it in a uhaul or tow it down the highway out in the open? :lol:

..also, no wonder oils are hawked everywhere, didn't realize it was the next big pyramid. :roll:

[ThisOlGirl]

Ha! If it was anybody but these two, I'd be feeling a little secondhand embarrassment for them. But it's the McDonalds, and they're gross, so I'll just point and laugh.

Maybe it's inflatable?

About the EO's my cousin has recently gotten into buying from the same company that Stacey shills for. She also has appeared to have gone pretty fundie lately (this is a woman with a Master's in geology, so I don't know what the hell is going on there). Not sure if the two are connected.

[Coco]

i'm just jaded because almost every fundie friend on FB has been singing the praises of essential oils lately. Knowing it's a pyramid explains why it's everywhere all of a sudden. Before this i just assumed it was the chevron of health fads. So tired of the peeps selling things and doing dumb parties. Like some weird electric thing that changes the PH in water. And random supplements. And scentsy. And 31 bags. And tupperware. Even a few doing the skin care side of mary kay. (since our old version of fundies think makeup is ebil). i guess these companies figure fundies are an untapped promised land. i just wish people would see that it makes them "that" friend. and there's only so much blood you can get from a turnip lol. i almost prefer the FB spam pics of random generic restaurant food. :D

Fundies ripping off other fundies. So what else is new?

True :lol:

[RosyDaisy]

Damn, fundies, nobody wants to know the details of what goes on in your marital bed. TMI and over sharing. Somebody pass me the brain bleach.

Oh dear sweet zombie JESUS.

Funny story. Guy heard that cinnamon essential oil was good for "potency." Applied to area he wished would be more potent.

Ended up in the DR with second degree chemical burns to penis and scrotum, has permanent scarring and loss of sensation from destroyed nerve endings, narrowly avoided a skin graft.

I own a business that involves working with a lot of essential oils. With some of them, like cinnamon, lemon, oregano, and rose (among others), I wear eye protection as well as a double set of gloves. I have seen these oils eat through plastic. Through paper. I have no doubt they'll eat through skin, too.

And while you have all heard this before, just in case you missed it, Young Living is a pyramid scheme that marks oils up about 200% more than market value. They claim their oils are "certified therapeutic grade," but there's no certifying body for essential oils, nor is there a grading system. They claim that an organization in France certifies their oils. The organization does no such thing. They claim that certain tests, such as gas chromatography, demonstrate the purity of their oils. Untrue. These tests prove nothing, only that Young Living owns expensive machinery. The company encourages users to apply the oils to skin (never ever ever) and even put essential oils in water and drink them (oh my god no).

Essential oils are regulated as a fragrance product by the FDA. Here's how rigorous that testing is:

Is this an essential oil?

Yes/No

That's it. That's the regulation. No testing, no grading, no sooper special tests that "big pharmaceutical" wants to keep you from knowing about. They're a fragrance product.

TL;DR

Stacey has a pyramid scheme and it is SKETCHY AS HELL.

[Childless]

Ugh. My sister is into this stuff. What a waste of money! She kept trying to pedal it to me when my son was having some issues. Thanks, but I'll take the doctor's advice backed by scientific research over highly priced fragrances. And, what do you know, the doctor was correct and my son is now doing a lot better.

[Arete]

I greatly fear the next post from the Right Reverend McDonald is going to desecrate the late Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing", complete with a reply from Stacy that will include the words "myrrh" and "neroli". I am embarrassed for their future grandchildren at this point.

[Cheetah]

I have a fundie-light FB friend who is way into the Young Living oils and 2/3 of her FB posts are either testimonials or news about upcoming classes she's hosting. Anyway, this morning I think she topped herself... the testimonial was about some oil curing some teen's scoliosis. Apparently you feather the oil along the spine for a month or so and that'll do it. Umm hmmm....
