Heh! "Please state your FR handle, your current tag line, and all the ping lists you're on"

I'm relatively new to FR (about 3 months). I don't know what you mean. I'm on farmfriends ping list. I thought my handle was bedolido, and my tag line was about my even/odd phobia. Am I mistaken?

[Fury]

It's not an opus. An opus requires:

...Several things listed... I don't know, Laz. A+Bert went out in a blaze of "glory" and he didn't meet your four criteria! ;)

[SoDak]

And, a good opus would have brightened up an otherwise drab Monday afternoon.

[Lazamataz]

Wow, I guess we all really needed to know this...

Thusly the word 'Vanity'.

Allowing you to pass over it and making it easier to avoid being extremely disturbed.

Y'see.

Happy trails to you until we meet again.
Happy trails to you, keep smilin' until then.
Who cares about the clouds when we're together?
Just sing a song and bring the sunny weather.
Happy trails to you 'till we meet again.

(sigh)

It's not an opus. An opus requires:

• A proclamation you are leaving forever.

• An explanation of the many wonderful ways you have benefitted FR -- and extra credit if most of them are wrong or exaggerated.

• A pained exploration of why FR is so messed up now. Lots of extra points for each mention of the phrase "The Old Days" or "How It Used To Be" or "All The Good Freepers Are Gone".

• A vow never to return.

So, you're excuse for boring us is that you've got no guts?
C'mon, girly man, tell us again how you're leaving.

[Polycarp]

Yeah. I don't want to face that sort of thing.

I decided in second grade to be a doctor. Now I realize it was fate: I needed to be a doc so I could be self-employed, and no one could fire me for FReeping on the job, because I'm my own boss. Is it too late to go back to school, Laz?

Uh, gotta run, Mrs. Feltzcrantz is waiting in exam room three. I need to take a breather from my job so I can FReep more...

[evets]

I guess that you won't be needing this Tag line then. Thanks.


ps. Good luck with that 'work' thing.

[bedolido]

I'm curious to know what you think will happen if your post shows up on an (GASP) uneven number.

It all depends on how many odds and how many evens... at the days end if I have more odds I have to hit my dead arm with a hammer (left arm doesn't work to well after a traffic accident on 05/03/2001 at 13:18 in my 87 toyota.

if I have more even posts I save them for uneven calendar days and use them in my 7th floor cubical (that actually has 5 sides).

So, you're excuse for boring us is that you've got no guts? C'mon, girly man, tell us again how you're leaving.

Feh. Less effective then the first attempt. ;^)

[Larry Lucido]

The worst part is, tomorrow Laz will get run over by a cheese truck and bitten by a moose that happens by, and not one of us will ever know.

Alcho-Freeper

Drinking and FReeping, eh?

(How about FReepaholic?)

[billhilly]

"but that's the best time for freepin'~!"

Beats working.

[sit-rep]

Laz, ...are you need'n a little attention man?

Let me post a hottie thread. Give somethin' else to think about for a while!

[Sabertooth]

Go on, President Bush doesn't need you.

[Constitution Day]

What?!? You're still here? ;^)

[Focault's Pendulum]

See you all soon .... NOT DURING WORK HOURS!

I can see it's really working.

Well...go ahead....turn your back on us...you treachourous,tratouroous, tratorical, .....something........ bile ridden piece of pig bile.

See if we care!!

Mark my words....you'll be back.....you self indoljent, indugent, indecent, doopey head!!!

That's right...I said doopey head!!

I love ya' man!!

[bedolido]

How about FReepaholic?

Definately makes more sense. Definately... it's almost time for "Let's Make a Deal"

[oceanperch]

I thought you were retired.

Once a freeper always a freeper. Even one post can send you into a spiral of like mindedness.

[Lazamataz]

Laz, ...are you need'n a little attention man?

Not THIS kind, wink wink nudge nudge.

Naw, I've just got a lot of good friends on FR, and I want them to know.

Plus it's a good discussion-starter about the (relatively unmentioned) issue of workfreeping.
