What would the first line of YOUR opus be? (Vanity)

Posted on 07/03/2012 12:49:54 PM PDT by Luna

There have been some dull opuses here at FR. It’s no wonder they’re met with such contempt and ridicule by other Freepers. No one likes boring. We like to be entertained, for crying out loud! Opus people, if you’re going to write an opus, make it worth our while.

First (or maybe last) line of my opus.

Sometimes it's better to light a flamethrower than curse the darkness.

I am through cursing.

My Opus would begin...."I'll show you ALL. I'll start another website with a whole forum dedicated to bitchin' about JR and FR and I'll invite all the FReepers that aren't gettin' enough attention to their complaints from Jim Thompson. So THERE!"

....oh...wait......

After careful study of the Higgs Bosun particle

I have come to the conclusion that matter doesnt size

and that there is much more value in the motion of the Bosun

therefore I have chosen to move on

and use my now highly valued talents elsewhere.

Goodbye to those less talented here on FR.

If it were intentional, my opus would be:

      'Oh Rowty-owty tiddly-owty
       Tiddly-owty tiddly-owty
       Highty-ighty tiddly-ighty
            Tiddly-ighty ow."

I would then retire from FR and take up a garret in Lambeth.

Cheers!
