Machine Man Word Cloud
I discovered a word cloud generator, so naturally enough I pasted Machine Man into it.
It looks like this:

That’s pretty awesome. I love the big Lola. I’m disappointed “just” is so big, though. I have to stop using that. Possibly I am overdoing the similes, too, with a “like” of those dimensions. But the scattering of body parts is nice.

I am in awe that the word 'contour' has been so prolific. This must be your best work yet! :)

Something else, Max apparently doesn't trust us to remember Cassandra's last name. Either that or he's making some kind of statement that she somehow needs two names, like the opposite of Madonna. I also like how "something" was another big one. I imagine a common sentence to go "Cassandra Cautery and Lola were like... something." :D

I really enjoy the tiny "Jason" tucked away in the corner, though.

Having said that, I put my wife's books through it and the results will make lovely place mats.

Other than that, I find it interesting that "Dr" is so small (That's it underneath "Page" there. No, not that, that's a fleck of dust on your screen. There.) Perhaps this reflects the average level of final education of the main characters. Or something.
