Basic GlitchWhat is this red and neon yellow thing? Kinda looks like a bracelet?
Looks like a pretty shitty prusik loop. Usually used in climbing or other ropes applications. A good prusik would be of a better rope quality and the knots would be more robust but same principle.
rnerclemore like a fisherman’s knot. When you pull on it, they will hold tighter
It is just a bracelet. They used to hand these out when I was a kid.

When I hear friendship bracelets I usually think of this:
Or this:
I have a vague childhood memory/mental image of this dickhead older bully with an undercut being decked out in bugle boy and wearing a similar patterned bracelet. I didn’t associate it with friendship bracelets though. Wasn’t sure how this one ended up in my living room.
Makes more sense if it was a party favor or something.
Yeah they expanded rapidly from the ones shown to all the other varieties.
Mostly_GristleIt’s a friendship bracelet. Back in the late 80s and early 90s friendship bracelets were super popular in elementary and middle schools. The idea was that you and your friends would make them by hand and give them to each other. I’m sure they’re probably low key still a thing, but their popularity at the time was pretty much on par with how popular fidget spinners were a few years ago, so you could buy mass-produced ones in all the same places you could buy fidget spinners: gas stations, grocery stores, etc. This was the most common style of mass-produced one.
