Who is more like a spider?

Spiders have eight limbs. Doctor Otto Octavius has eight limbs. Peter parker only has four. Doesn't that make Doc Ock more of a spider? He has eight limbs like an octopus, but nobody calls him Octopus-Man.

    We don’t call him octopus man because he worked hard for that doctorate

    Dr Octopus is a half-assed octopus, hasn't even gone past the bare minimum of "oh I have eight limbs" WHOOPDEFUCKING DO
    Call me when you get force-fed your own skinned arm as a delicious treat

    in conclusion, Doc Oc is a typical silicon valley vaporware hack, thankyou for coming to my TED talk

    Your evidence is compelling but before defining a new species taxonomy we need to determine the fertility of the resulting hybrid and the genetic transmission ratios

    ie what happens when we cross breed a spiderman with a spider

    I'm glad I voted for the same option as tynic as she's clearly the only person commenting here who even understands the question properly, never mind the answers, and the biological, ethical, and social ramifications of each.

    I don't know if anyone can fully understand the social aspects
    like, what happens when a spiderman achieves full sexual maturity and fertilizes a thousand eggs several times a year
    is NY ready for the housing crisis precipitated by tens of thousands of web-flinging nest-seeking vigilantes
    ... or can they make their homes under existing eaves and lampposts? look all I'm saying is we should at least set up a committee to study the question

    A spider accidentally gets bombarded with radioactive human DNA.

    He ends up getting a menial job, driving a Toyota Corolla, and spending every day suffering from existential dread.
