Yes, it does. I'm sure most of us would say that, even if we weren't a skater boy. But in this case, it literally does blow. Blow its top, to be specific. It's an obtuse triangle, it looks like. And it appears to have been active for quite some time, and now its finally erupted.
It doesn't erupt in degrees, or angles. It erupts in -- what else -- but more triangles, acute ones, this time. Or are those protractors? And it looks like our geometric volcano is also made out of a cone. Fitting, of course.
and our geometric wilderness wouldn't be complete without a host of right triangles. They make up the forest waiting below.
Not even the Pythagorean theorem can save them now.

I actually like a derby shirt...its been a while. It's pretty abstract too, so that's neat.
Just a few things to point out though...
1. The volcano isn't an obtuse triangle. There's no obtuse angle in it.
2. Most of the triangles spewing out are either right or obtuse triangles.
3. None of the trees are right angles. They're acute.
Sorry, but I just had to defend math. Happy shopping :)
