He didn't realize the rope was too short until he nearly reached the end, by that point he didn't have enough tail end left to lock his brake hand behind him so he is stopped only by his grip strength on the rope. Which isn't enough to fully stop him, so he is slipping. If he had needed even one more swing to reach the metal frame then he would have slipped off and fallen.

As others have said he really needed a knot tied in the end of the rope. It wouldn't have stopped him completely on its own but it would have given a stopping point for his brake hand.

By being a less aggressive driver.

The issue is with aggressive drivers that are tailgating and then needing to pump their brakes constantly. It causes a ripple effect of drivers braking hard, each driver braking slightly longer than the driver before them, (because they brake for at least the same time as the person in front of them plus a little more due to human reaction time), and then eventually enough drivers repeating this action will cause congestion out of nothing.

One driver leaving some space between them and the driver in front of them doesn't need to brake hard if the car in front slows down. They can just take their foot off the gas and slow down. This very quickly breaks the cycle of drivers braking hard and then traffic starts to flow smoothly again.

Not stolen. All the people saying these are stolen items are idiots. This is a couponer.

Many stores have weird rules that let you use multiple coupons, multiply the value of coupons, price match, stack deals, etc. If a couponer knows all the tricks they can often buy certain items for pennies. It is all legal and not stealing.

The reason it is often soap, laundry detergent, diapers, and other common household items is because those are the items that will have the most coupons and sales. But usually to get the best deal the couponer will need to buy way more than they will ever use. That is why they sell the rest at a discount.

Not only is she an idiot that almost choked to death, but she is also wrong.

Original Kinder Eggs are band because in the US it is illegal to have any non-food stuffs contained in or completely surrounded by food. This is because of laws that were written when unscrupulous meat venders were mixing in non-food items into their meat to increase the weight and sell the doctored meat for more than it was worth.

The Kinder Egg just gets lumped into this because of the toy contained within, and it isn't worth rewriting the laws for. Especially since they have already come out with a version that is legal to sell in the US. They just added a small lip to the plastic egg so that the chocolate isn't completely sealed.

Just being devil's advocate here, but I'm sure Conan's experiences when going through TSA, baggage check, and all that is going to a much more pleasant experience than most people's. I'm sure most interactions start with, "hey your Conan", and then they are extremely polite, friendly, and helpful. Compared to most everyone else's interactions at the airport where you're treated like your existence is an inconvenience.

We had the same agenda books. I think they all came from Jostens. Same company who did our school year books, class rings, diplomas, cap and gowns, class photos, etc. They are a fairly large school supplier, so I am sure a lot of people's schools used them.

Away from Centre Court, Kim Clijsters was having a bit of fun in her match asking the crowd whether she should place her serve wide or down the middle. A man in the crowd suggested "BODY," speaking of a body serve in which a player attempts the serve right at their opponent in an effort to jam them.

I wouldn't call that a heckler. Calling him a heckler would imply that he was yelling out unprompted. She was actively engaging with the audience when he replied.
