Fairwell to Frum Skeptic

Mazal Tov to Frum Skeptic on getting engaged! But not all is well in bloggerland. While FS enjoys her new found happiness, what will become of us? It is an expert opinion that there's a 95% chance that within the next several months Frum Skeptic will undergo an unholy transformation. The One Ring which now encircles her finger is even now using its unholy energies in an attempt to transform Frum Skeptic into Frummie Believer. Listen not to FS's claims that her man is super modern, appearances are deceiving. He is not what he claims he is. He is, in fact, an undercover agent of the Elders of Zion.

The transformation will not happen all at once. It will be gradual, to avoid suspicion. Below are the projected 10 steps that FS will go through before becoming FB.

1. Turn on privacy settings for her FB account.
2. Start writing only happy, fluffy posts.
3. Limit to who can view her FB pictures.
   
4. Delete her pictures on FB.
5. Change her blogger theme and font to be more curly, pink and with more lace.
   
6. Delete "not nice" posts on her blog.
7. Remove all guys from her friends list on FB.
8. Start using frummie language on her blog.
9. Close her FB account.
10. And finally, change her blog name to Frummie Believer.

While there's still hope, it's very slim. Beware, children, lest the same befall you.
P.S. if, when you see her and ask her to see The Ring and she responds with "No! It's mine! My preciousssss", it's already too late.
