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.

You owe me a new leg. I had to gnaw mine off to survive that.

(first draft)

There once was this thing called an Opus

The Author can't keep it in focus

They Whine and they Bitch

While they're making their Pitch

But their Opus is just Hocus Pocus

Take solace in the fact that things could be worse.

I would hope that whatever I write as an opus would begin a RINO-sifting bugzapper thread.

Something similar to JimRob’s one line here:

Not with a bang but a whimper.......

Or: Do not ask for whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.......

Or: Who is John Galt Jim Thompson?

Or: c...c...can't we all just get along?

Or: (and this is final) I don't trust anyone but you and me, but frankly....lately I'm beginning to worry about you........

I did the same on Democratic Underground the day after the 2004 election.

I'd been doing double-agent duty there for some months and wrote an Opus for all the DU whiners to choke on. I also posted it HERE on FR for anyone interested.

> Pretty sad, huh? When even your opus gets pulled.

Not necessarily....

It was a dark and stormy night. She was dark and stormy herself, mysterious and elusive, with a smile that foretold of unknown magical experiences. I was just a college sophomore at a technical school, unwise in the ways of the world... I was attracted by her beauty, her charm, her Camarillo Brillo hair, her Mexican poncho... I followed her up to her room...

Later that night as she drew me closer, wrapped in a cloud of incense, I meekly requested that she be gentle... She said, in that low, soft, husky voice:

"Oh, you've never had your opus pulled? Well, I can fix that..."
At that point my memory becomes hazy... it must have been the amulets...
It was an experience I shall treasure always.

Quix’s opus has over 1500 replies.

WELL JIM, ENJOY THE BED YOU HAVE MADE: Quix’s latest Opus Installment
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2902837/posts

His first line, which I didn’t even bother to finish reading:
Wellllllll Jim, Enjoy The Bed You’ve Made . SUMMARY: . IN COMPLEX INTERPERSONAL SITUATIONS AND RELATIONSHIPS—WHO CAN KNOW WHAT IS “REALLY REAL?” APPEARANCES ARE WHAT IS REAL TO THE OBSERVER CONCERNED. So, in many respects, the REAL might be the opposite of the statements below. However, the statements ARE PERCEIVED TO BE—APPARENTLY REAL ENOUGH for evidently thousands of FREEPERS that only idiots would fail to give such assertions fitting prayerful pondering.
