It's not often I come across a comment that I wouldn't understand any less if it was in a language I don't speak but I think this one makes the cut.

Holy topic-specific terminology, Batman!

> All I know is a [knot used to join a length of rope into a circle/loop, performed three times) is nearly impossible to untie [when tied with large-diameter polyethylene plastic rope] after [falling (while climbing) and being caught by the loop I made to take load] made out of it. It's sort of comforting have the rock hard knot; it'll break the [loop itself, structurally] before untying. Interestingly, [if you don't tighten the knot by dropping bodyweight from a height on it like I did, they're] pretty simple to untie!

All we need is a fisherman-toplogist, and we can perfect the incomprehensibility of the discussion on particular knots.
