I know this because of phineas and ferb
Justice League Unlimited, animated series from the mid aughts, for me. The Question played by Jeffrey Combs was amazing!
I am reminded of this term about once a year and then promptly forget because it never comes up except in internet memes.
It’s actually an eyelet
Nah, eyelet is the hole that your lace (and aglet) goes through.
I prefer my truth
“I reject your reality, and substitute my own.”

Korrekt ist Nadel. Wenn sie aus Metall ist, kann man auch Pinke dazu sagen.
Ich dachte es wäre immer Pinke.

Shoelace foreskins.
Those are the ends of what are called shoelaces, friend.
Friendship: DENIED
Damn, I was joking and now I’m at -1. Should’ve added the /s I guess.
More seriously, aren’t those called aglets? Always forget the name when I want to remember it.
aglets in english
English in English
"Always forget the name when I want to remember it. "
Is that a problem you run into regularly?
Are you kidding me? Has usb D dropped already??
food. given how much i chew on them
Are you a cat? Who chews on their shoelaces?
The Simpsons told me what an aglet is years ago.
The question is, do you know what this is?
An awl? Am I missing something?
Home Improvement is where I learned that, hence the picture of Wilson, who’s the one who brought it up.
That’s a Wilson.
Alrighty neighbour
(Awl, neighbour (Wilson) to the right)
For specialized pokey tools, my favorite is the regulator. The only thing handier than a regulator is two regulators.

🎵I want it awl, I want it awl, I want it awl, and I want it now🎵
(The song that gets stuck in my head whenever I use an awl)
Awl that jazz.

Okay I’ll bite,
The rude who?
Lace nipples
They’re clearly words. Letters if you want to be more specific.
That’s a pretty cool unrelated picture of aglets, though. Totally random lol
Aglets & I got to know this from Phineas & Ferb
Jimmy Neutron taught me
“The plastic tips at the end of shoe laces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.”
Their purpose is to be a component for Hermes Boots
Aka if you don’t watch phineas and ferb, you’re not my friend
Telomeres, right? Then why is nobody saying telomeres?
Telomeres are a structure on DNA. These things, aglets, are a common metaphor used to describe the function of telomeres as aglets basically do for shoelaces what telomeres do for DNA
Reverse the metaphor.
Do I get a pass if English is not my first language?
No, before now I did not know the name for it in my first language either.
