opiner (plural opiners)

  1. One who opines.
    • 2009 August 9, Virginia Heffernan, “Hashing Things Out”, in New York Times‎:
      That’s what drew me to it: an Internet opiner must be pretty bold so early on to liken Gates, however indirectly, to both a former Black Panther on death row and a Hollywood shoplifter.
