A song.

Iron Man
Iron Man
Does whatever an iron can.
Presses pants
Any size
Including pleats,
cuffs and flies
Look out!
Here comes the Iron Man!!!!!!

*sputter*!

Very good. Very, very good.

To my knowledge, this was first done a number of years ago by comics writer Roger Stern (his version had "keeps those creases / right in line" instead of "Including pleats / cuffs and flies").

I couldn't remember where I'd heard it first, and I couldn't quite remember the second line, so I wrote my own. Certainly, the song in general is not mine, but that line is.

I can't tell whether this is supposed to scan to TMBG's "Triangle Man" or not.

No; the Spider Man theme song.

[navrins]

Ah, that makes a little more sense.

Nevertheless, it appears I'm going to keep scanning it to Triangle Man and getting stuck. This is not really my choice anymore.

[brooksmoses]

You are not alone.

(Except that the song is titled "Particle Man", unless I'm quite mistaken. There's a triangle man in it, though.)

[navrins]

Particle Man, Triangle Man, Spider Man, Iron Man, whatever. What is he like? It's not important.

(Nevertheless, you're probably right.)

So, does Triangle Man do everything a triangle can?

[brooksmoses]

The song sayeth not. Mostly he gets in fights, it seems. And wins. Sharp corners are probably good for that.

Remind me not to read your blog while eating. Time to clean my monitor again.
