The slipped version where the last move is done with a bight of the end, rather than with the end itself, is one that can be tightened flat, slid, locked (like a belt buckle), and then untied quickly (like when nature calls) with an exploding pop. If not tightened flat, this Slipped friendship knot loop collapses into a cube and will neither slide nor pop.[1]

Tying

Like tying a friendship knot, except that it is tied to the ropes own end, coming back from forming the loop.

gollark: My bot technically doesn't have a "clear user data" command, but it only stores user data if you explicitly run a command which obviously stores user data, and nobody asked to have their data deleted yet.
gollark: I feel like the opt-out thing should perhaps be more clearly provided.
gollark: We don't use commas instead of decimal points. We use commas to separate out groups of digits in numbers, and decimal points to represent... decimals.
gollark: Mine displays 24 hour time too. No idea why.
