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.

Brilliant!

Also: It is a far far better thing I do than I have ever done. It is a far far better rest I go to than I have ever known.

As always, procrastination has put me in a bind. I’ve been trying to find a way back to my home planet but I’ve been having so much fun here that I didn’t try very hard. Now, time is running out and I’m getting a bit desperate.

It’s still not too late. I have a few weeks, but I am sweating a little.

As the military drones buzzed overhead, the young boy read an old scribbled message on the notebook, “It didn’t have to be this way.”

“My real name is R-725123512 and my mother ship has finally arrived to take me back home, so I must bid adieu to this place called Free Republic because it causes me the most horrendous allergies,” someone might write as an opus.

Charles Dickens already nailed mine for me:

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way - in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.

You’re right, that was sad.

Did the condemned give a reason?

I am leaving Free Republic because the UK gov’t decided it was a forum for “promoting intolerance” and the armed response unit is about to kick in my door.

I will meet them with the one anti-stab kitchen knife I was allowed to purchase under the new “pointed weapons control act” and my sub-12ft lbs muzzle energy airgun allowed under the firearms control act blazing.

It was fun while it lasted. Godspeed!
