Aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.

Aglet - phineas and ferb

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Aglet. Archie comics did a bit on them, that's where I learned

Aglets.

And their true purpose is sinister.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

What's their true purpose?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

🎶 A, G, L, E, T, Aglets! Don't forget it 🎶

^^^One word at a time^^^

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Aglets. Learned that from Phineas and Ferb.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Aglets.

Laces.

Sneakers.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Shoes? Maybe Reeboks?

Edit: I am appalled by how many people know the term aglet.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

This is the result I was hoping for

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Aglet. Not Phineas & Ferb. Terraria.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Aglet - Jimmy Neutron

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

They're aglets. I believe Phineas and Ferb is a cartoon, but I've never seen it.

Aglets, if you’re talking about the ends on the laces, and please update why you’re asking lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

My thinking is that the aglet is a well known word these days, but if you were to poll a group, it would be mostly younger people who know what it is. Because of Phineas and Ferb.

I'm glad so many people responded and most people got it right! But, I'll have to do a real poll to figure out if there's any actual correlation here, and also account for the fact that people who know what it is were more likely to answer than those who don't.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Aglets. Can't remember where I learned the word.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Shoes.

Shoes, with the Aglets of the laces resting upon them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

A picture of a shoe, with laces, which have plastic aglets on the ends.

OP, they’re obviously called aglets.

Didn’t Phineas and Ferb teach you anything?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Exactly the point I'm trying to prove 😉
