I hope this comment is ironic.

Great code should be predictable, obvious and easy to change.

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!

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.

If your code doesn't give me existential angst, or make me ask, "who am I - really?", you're doing it wrong.
