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!
Exactly what I was thinking of. I'd still like to know what the real, sinister purpose of aglets are.
They break down faster than your shoe string and spread microplastics. Just my guess.
I am reminded of this term about once a year and then promptly forget because it never comes up except in internet memes.

Shoelaces
Looks like Sandstorm by Darude
Okay I'll bite,

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.

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.
For specialized pokey tools, my favorite is the regulator. The only thing handier than a regulator is two regulators.

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
Is it worth noting that I only know this because of the spoof horror movie Repossessed?
Education takes many forms
I used to know what those were, but then I got zapped by a laser
I called them string snibbets when I was little
Ferrule
I CAN LEARN
...and then forget it later

Their true purpose is sinister.
