What will this do to your opus list?

What the F**k is an "opus list"?

An Opus is a thread written by a disgruntled FReeper who is pretending to tell everyone "goodbye," but whose sole purpose is actually to bitch and moan about FR and try to make people feel sorry for him. (Most people don't give a rat's hiney.)

The really good ones are short, sweet, and to the point.  The bad ones are like the cheap paperback novel from hell, with the 'opee' droning on and on and on, whining and complaining about everything under the sun. Either way, he usually doesn't come back, which is met with gladness on the part of everyone else.  An obnoxious FReeper is like a bad case of rotted toe jam; everyone wants to get rid of it but no one wants to get that close.  The best ones I've ever seen were by Jack Thompson.  That was his favorite past-time around here several years ago.

BTW, the plural term is "opera."  So technically, I should have called it the "Opera list."  But Pardek is the one who started it so I usually defer to his preferences on that one.
