Very true, but since you are dealing with a reference, splice would clobber your original list.

The code for a splice loop should look something like:

sub lolize{
    my($size, $arrayref)=@_;
    my @returnarray=();
    my $count=0;
    while($count<=$@arrayref){
        push @returnarray, [splice(@$arrayref,$count, $count+$size-1)]
+;
        $count+=$size;
    }
    return [@returnarray];
}

This is untested, so this might "fill-in" your array to fill in the last list. To correct that, you say:

push @returnarray, [splice(@$arrayref,$count, ($count+$size-1<=@$array
+ref)? $count+size-1 :@$arrayref )];

Hmm. There are probably some fencepost errors and such when $size=1 and suchlike, but this should let you play with it.
