Only a part, not the whole
"when stuck" is the whole point of these things. fripp's are always rubbish.

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.

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

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.
