It seems that several people have made an "Opus" recently

Yes, and I'm still running into some of them posting on the board.

If you start an Opus ping list (and I hope you will) please put me on it.

P.P.S. This post is in no way intended to make fun of those who have chosen to leave FR.

WHy not?

An "opus" is like the final speech/rant someone gives before they leave an organization or cause forever.

Let's say "Bob" is the chief member of "People for Pointless Stuff". If "Bob" decides to leave - say, because he is disgruntled - he might give an opus to the remaining members stating why he is leaving, and what has ticked him off. He may give htem advice on how to change, but will most likely never return the group.

"Opus" is also the name of the little penguin, if I'm not mistaken.

Actual Unretouched Photo of Fiddlstix Jim, It has been called to my attention (and rightly so, I might add) that for this to be a true Opus I must admonish you and point out my grievences...
(So here goes.......)

First off, You never serve cake and ice cream to all FReepers in the afternoon when people are desperately in need of refreshment...
(A "pick me up", as it were)

Second, You have not planted Roses around the main FR server so as to help beautify the place....
(Or so I'm told. I'll admit that I'm taking that on "hear say")

Third, .... Hmmmmm... Well, I'll get back to you on that one.....

Forth, Eerrr... Hmmmm... I'll get back to you on that one too..........

Fifth, Well...... just so this post won't be a total loss.....
Please consider yourself properly admonished........

(P.S. If you find these grievances offensive, please ignore them)

Yours truly,
Fiddlstix

An opus is a parting essay posted by a disgruntled Freeper deluded into thinking anyone cares. See also: Freepercide.

Ok, what is the plural for opus?

In Latin, opera, in English opera or opuses.

Would a "Magnum Opus" be FReepercide by gunshot?

I give this Opus a 93. I could LOL to it AND dance! It had a good beat.
