What is OP?

I work in government, so I’m constantly deciphering, or inventing, new acronyms . . . this one I can’t foigure out, and I’m sure it’s painfully obvious. . . OP? I see it used in this board as in “the OP contains information on this topic.”

A little help?

October Project was a really good band. But Sony dropped them from the label, and Mary Fahl left. The rest of the band and a new vocalist reformed as November Project.

Still very good.

You should study your movie history more, mealypotaotes. It was with the film Ordinary People that Robert Redford made a name for himself as a director, and thus OP is a frequent source of inspiration for members of SDMB.

I’ll bet the OP is really glad this question was asked!
