If it's predictable and obvious it'll be so boring, I won't even want to read it. A good program needs conflict and moral ambiguity!
If your code doesn't give me existential angst, or make me ask, "who am I - really?", you're doing it wrong.
No, it needs lyrical beauty!
In C, everything rhymes in ';'.
LOL! I almost spit out my lunch. Which wouldn't be good because I'm sitting at my desk, in front of my station, in a very quiet office.

Bravo.
