Whoever came up with that one was reading Dune, I'd guess

1986 Olive Garden (Z S), Saturday, 17 March 2012 17:12 (fourteen years ago)

I was thinking about tequila

guess that's less oblique now that it's all spelled out

What mistakes did you make last time?

any major prude will tell you (WmC), Sunday, 18 March 2012 14:09 (fourteen years ago)

ugh, this is the question i don't want to face on the morning after st. patrick's day

1986 Olive Garden (Z S), Sunday, 18 March 2012 14:35 (fourteen years ago)

none of your damn business ;_;

Simply a matter of work

any major prude will tell you (WmC), Monday, 19 March 2012 18:38 (fourteen years ago)

billy joel?

some lovers just rely on their heart
the cold remains of what began with a passionate start

etc etc

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 19 March 2012 18:54 (fourteen years ago)

or something

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 19 March 2012 18:54 (fourteen years ago)

ilxors: they simply natter at work

Aimless, Monday, 19 March 2012 18:56 (fourteen years ago)

Rolled up yesterday's and then forgot to post it. (This one from Fripp.)

20 March 2012:

When stuck, increase the complexity.

any major prude will tell you (WmC), Wednesday, 21 March 2012 14:18 (fourteen years ago)

21 March 2012:

Only a part, not the whole

any major prude will tell you (WmC), Wednesday, 21 March 2012 14:18 (fourteen years ago)

When stuck, increase the complexity.

"when stuck" is the whole point of these things. fripp's are always rubbish.

ledge, Wednesday, 21 March 2012 14:19 (fourteen years ago)

His GC aphorisms aren't meant to be "when stuck" advice for the most part the way Oblique Strategies are. I like tossing them in there every now and then but I'm thinking about dropping his and sticking with OS only.

any major prude will tell you (WmC), Wednesday, 21 March 2012 14:30 (fourteen years ago)

I think I prefer just the OS. Fripp's sound like they are for Fripp alone!

So Efficient! (doo dah), Wednesday, 21 March 2012 14:43 (fourteen years ago)

They certainly don't apply to me and my life. Increasing the complexity will only result in more pain. I'm all about simplifying things.

Laura Lucy Lynn (La Lechera), Wednesday, 21 March 2012 17:34 (fourteen years ago)

Clarifying, rather.

23 March 2012:

Work at a different speed

any major prude will tell you (WmC), Friday, 23 March 2012 13:52 (fourteen years ago)

I choose "slow/idle" today

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 23 March 2012 16:22 (fourteen years ago)

that's the only speed i got.

Consult other sources

— unpromising

28 March 2012:

Simple subtraction

Whiney Houson (WmC), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 14:48 (fourteen years ago)

Subtract me from work = I wish

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 15:11 (fourteen years ago)

29 March 2012:

Remove ambiguities and convert to specifics

Whiney Houson (WmC), Thursday, 29 March 2012 16:35 (fourteen years ago)

this might be my favorite strategy so far.

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 29 March 2012 17:04 (fourteen years ago)

Only one element of each kind

Whiney Houson (WmC), Saturday, 31 March 2012 19:09 (fourteen years ago)

for those of you with 3 or more children, that means you have to choose only one son and only one daughter. i'm sorry.

This is going to make interior decorating very interesting or very frustrating

A line has two sides
