Korrekt ist Nadel. Wenn sie aus Metall ist, kann man auch Pinke dazu sagen.

Shoelace foreskins.

[–] reseller_pledge609@lemmy.dbzer0.com 47 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Those are the ends of what are called shoelaces, friend.

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.

Those are shoe laces. They help keep your shoes on your feet.

[–] capt_wolf@lemmy.world 27 points 3 days ago (9 children)

The Simpsons told me what an aglet is years ago.

The question is, do you know what this is?

"The plastic tips at the end of shoe laces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister."

Aka if you don't watch phineas and ferb, you're not my friend

[–] alekwithak@lemmy.world 19 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

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

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.

I don't know the name but I can tell you how sad they make me when they break and tear off and you have to use a lighter on the now extremely frayed end(s) of your shoelace for just a few seconds, and then pinch off the flame just lightly burning your fingies while molding the shoelace end into a cohesive black carcinogen.

Aglets. Now you know.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Ah, but once you know of the aglets, do you know what you put the aglets through? Maybe you should be friends with people who don't know aglets but do know the word for the holes

[–] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 11 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Ooiiieee not my eyelet holes.

They're called aglets. If you didn't already know that, I'm going to assume you have a life and aren't a gigantic nerd, and hope you still invite me to parties despite occasionally spouting useless information.
