		<title>My problem with Smurfs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[They&#8217;re consistently described as being three apples tall (&#8220;hauts comme trois pommes&#8221;; apparently including their hats). If these apples are regular apples, that means they&#8217;re ten inches to a foot tall. Given the size of their heads, they&#8217;d probably weigh well over ten pounds each.
They&#8217;re enormous.
You could say that they&#8217;re supposed to be those small [...]]]></description>

		<title>Year seriously over now</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I got my grades yesterday, so now the year is finally officially over as well. Due to MASSIVE INCOMPETENCE I hadn&#8217;t received my grades for last semester yet, so I just found out those as well.
All of it is roughly as expected, with a few exceptions.
Due to shuffling with classes at first and regular indifference [...]]]></description>

		<title>Aut Deus aut malus homo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[C. S. Lewis1 is much maligned, and for good reasons, but his &#8220;lunatic, liar, or Lord&#8221; trilemma is one that still sees quite a lot print, also for good reasons.
On the topic of Jesus going around and forgiving random sins, he had this to say (I&#8217;ve added some newlines to improve legibility; the internet is [...]]]></description>

		<title>CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COBOL</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s probably a bad idea to answer a COBOL exam entirely in C, but if a page of C can accomplish the same thing as four pages of COBOL, I&#8217;m not going to spend a June afternoon wearing out my pen and/or fingers.
I #defined a lot of things, though, so maybe he&#8217;ll be fooled by [...]]]></description>

		<title>Alright, alright</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Two slightly more useful programs, then. For given values of useful.
The first is a basic kopipe manager in C, the source code to which can be found here.
Should work under any real OS. If you&#8217;re going to compile it, make sure you change KOPIPE_FOLDER to something more appropriate.
Sample session follows:

cairnarvon@feynman:~$ kopipe
USAGE:
kopipe [name]
	Display kopipe
echo &#34;[kopipe]&#34; &#124; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Butthurt</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Literally. This chair is the most uncomfortable chair in the history of shitty Scandinavian furniture. It&#8217;s uncomfortable enough that I feel it merits a blog post.
I say Scandinavian rather than Swedish because it&#8217;s not actually from Ikea, but from some Norwegian company.
And I guess it&#8217;s not actually this chair but a chair very like it, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bored, so meme</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a Livejournal meme, but I don&#8217;t use Livejournal, so I&#8217;m posting this here.
Premise:

Leave me a comment saying anything random, like your favorite lyric to your current favorite song. Or your favorite kind of sandwich. Something random. Whatever you like.
I respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you [...]]]></description>

		<title>End of Year 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today was the last day of classes. There&#8217;s another month or so of final exams, but since I don&#8217;t study, all that means is that I only have to get out of bed once or twice a week instead of every day.
Next year is probably going to be year 2 again due to my habit [...]]]></description>

		<title>Deadlines</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Flash games are interfering with my plans to finish this Java game.
Right now, I have a fully functional, moderately clever, highly configurable Monopoly bot, which is really the most interesting part of the assignment. The rest (that is, the actual game of Monopoly) is just boring details, so it&#8217;s not likely I&#8217;m going to finish [...]]]></description>
