Depending on when you go, there is something to be said for the number of people they allow in at one time because you can’t as easily appreciate the floor as you can the ceiling.
It really is unfair to the bats who are only let in 3 at a time to look down and appreciate the floor
It's actually not all that unfair due to their notoriously poor eyesight. You could tell them that anywhere was the Sistine Chapel and they'd believe you. If they spoke English, that is
their notoriously poor eyesight
Broooo that's misinformation bro.
Bats are not blind and can in fact see quite well using their eyes. While most bats do have advanced ears that give them a form of vision in the dark known as echolocation, these good ears does not require them to have bad eyes. Bats use their good hearing to find food in the dark of night, and their good eyes to find food during the light of day. The vision of bats is tuned to low-light conditions such as is present during dawn and dusk. While some bats may not have as good color vision as humans, their overall vision may be better than humans during dawn and dusk.

Yeah, but we're in The Far Side community here. We were being absurd
Ah well the beauty of Lemmy I guess... You get shown popular posts from the communities you're not familiar with yet... Pardon me this once!
Bats have great eyesight. It's useful for snatching bugs in low light conditions.
Sure. We also let them in eight at a time in the Sistine Chapel.
These was an absurdist comment chain...
I'd assume they speak Italian, so they should get the gist.
I always loved this one!
Hello fellow Far Side fans!
About this community and how I post the comic strip… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips and one of those was The Far Side. These days of course you find just about anything online including www.thefarside.com where they post several comics a day and I repost them here. Just to note, the date you see in my posts is not the initial release date, but the date they were posted on the website.
The Far Side is a single-panel comic created by Gary Larson and syndicated by Chronicle Features and then Universal Press Syndicate, which ran from December 31, 1979, to January 1, 1995 (when Larson retired as a cartoonist). Its surrealistic humor is often based on uncomfortable social situations, improbable events, an anthropomorphic view of the world, logical fallacies, impending bizarre disasters, (often twisted) references to proverbs, or the search for meaning in life… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Far_Side
