Okay, I want this on a T-shirt more than I can express in text. I vaguely remember something about that being hard, which is infuriating, but I feel like I should emphasise that the market is very very there if it becomes easier someday.
A steel wire of 1,5 mm in diameter (with nylon coating 2,3 mm) will break at a little over 200 kg (i guss that’s more than 400 pounds).
But if your grappler pulls you up fast, then that could make the wire snap… maybe thicker wire is needed… or just a very slow and undramatic grappler winch.
I jump on the bandwagon and post a comment that describes me jumping on the bandwagon and posting a comment in the same fashion as previous comments were posted *takes a deep breath* to reference the comic strip above of which the author utilized the same method to describe what happens there.
Not-so-subtle return to previous comment threads’ 3rd-person narrative style. Hopes of continuation of same from future commenters. Also hoping for recognition from said comic strip’s author to feed ego.
Plans to brag to everyone that said author and self are “best buds” because of aforementioned hope of recognition, even though a big, fat lie!
Attempt and suck-uppery failure. Plans for honorable sepuku/disembowelment commence. Head hanging in shame/embarrassment. Looking forward to tomorrow’s strip to end agonizing humiliation at lack of recognition from genius (one last attempt as suck-upitiveness) creator of strip…
I have this image in my head of a steady stream of random people going up to Mr. Keaton asking him how much he weighed in 1989. “That’s both odd and specific. Why do people keep asking me that?”
It amazes me that not ONE of you people mentioned the old Bash.org website (which, I’m grieved to say, appears to be gone now )
This makes me very sad. 10 years ago (and more) that website used to make me laugh like crazy. It was the early version of Imgur or reddit or instagram posts. Mostly pornogaphic (ish) but bloody hilarious. The 3rd-person format comment y’all are bandying about up there was the top rated comment for YEARS.

Witty comment to applaud author of clever comic strip.
Reply to approve the witty comment above.
Nonsensical statement involving plankton.
Humbly accepts compliment.
Humbly accepts Creator’s acceptance of compliment.
Nice one, just how I feel after every soccer match in the office.
Appreciation of breaking stereotypes of sports-talk guys.
Appreciation of referencing 1989 batman instead of overblown remake trilogy.
Serious contemplation of whether a grappling hook appeared in remake trilogy.
Presumption that a grappling hook appeared during the skyscrapper scene in The Dark Knight
Nonsensical Adam West comment, for the sake of strangeness.
im not going to continue the comment spree that is following the strips style via 3rd person communication.
LOL.
feeling guilty of breaking the comment spree.
says “sorry” in the comment section.
Ha-ha!
Unrelated remark about the need to entertain the masses with sporting events to conceal government activities

Looking forward to youtube video of interpretative dance communicating desire for aforementioned t-shirt.
Sympathy for grappling bug’s situation and amusement over the fact that next time scenario occurs will be thinking of batnippples.

God this needs a like button!!!!! I wanna log in under 100 proxys and give you likes for this strip!
Thanks! The website is gonna get a slight makeover in a month or two and one of the new changes will be the ability to up-vote comments.
Chastises author for failing to recognize that visitors want to upvote him, rather than eachother.
Agrees with previous commenter.
do peoples get the right to have personal accounts? that would be great. you know, for the favorites thing.

As both a sports nut and sci fi geek, I relate to both sides.
Your influence on the brains of today’s youth, Adam, could be considered staggering. Would that there were far more youth present to influence.

Ah yes, you just described the first seven years of my work life.
Makes pointless comment just to join in the third person comment fun.
Reproves previous commenter for drifting off-topic of thread.
Scratches head in puzzlement. Then she gets it. Mentions that she sees what you did there.
Bemoans the lack of comment editing ability.
When Karl Marx wrote that religion was the opiate of the masses, it was only because they had yet to invent televised sports.
And nobody even mentioned the poor poor mug that’s going to crash because of that sports nut enthusiasm…

Posts a comment about being a fan of the webcomic adding procedence of poster to emphasize the worldwide reach of said webcomic.
Jubilant declaration that my comment has been posted prior to anyone else’s comments.
Pun related to comic title.
Schizopolis.
Vague, exhaustion-based giggling

I’ve spent the past two week randomly searching through the archives for a bug comic to print out and pin to my new office wall. FOUND IT!
Amused mention of “Title of the Song”
(No, seriously, that’s a real song. Go look it up.)
“…fly me to the moon.”
It amazes me that not ONE of you people mentioned the old Bash.org website (which, I’m grieved to say, appears to be gone now
)

I’m late to the party, but Bash is online right now, and that quote, http://bash.org/?23396 , is still quite high rated.
With great praise, says “Thanks for the link!”
<—– is very very happy
Condemnation of strip title for invocation of “Fly Me to the Moon” theme within my own mind.
(quick assertion that strip title is ingenious regardless)
Deeply unnecessary comment five years later.
Bemused response to commenter’s self-assessment from the guy who commented FOUR years later.
