This comic is dead on for a facetious rock climbing saying: "If you can't tie a knot, then tie a lot." Based on the tactic some climbing newcomers use, of tying tons of knots all over the place because they aren't confident that any one knot will hold. This tactic is strongly frowned upon - you should learn the right knot, use it, and don't add any extraneous ones. | This comic is dead on for a facetious rock climbing saying: "If you can't tie a knot, then tie a lot."

I'm sure there's a handy online catalogue of knots, to reference, though, before I try to stumble over the side-knots too. 172.71.242.172 16:05, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
Binding security maximized but unbinding security minimized. RIP, tethered sailor beneath a capsized boat. 172.70.114.78 16:20, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
