    OK - we all know the general technique for tying our shoelaces but there are two variations of this method...the weak way & strong way
    Apparently, most of us use the weak method. I know i did, and still do...i have to really remember to use the strong version...as i've just been so used to using the way I was taught.

    When I was a kid I started off with velcro. The moved onto laces. Now I'm back to velcro again. Its a vicious cycle.

    I always use a double knot when tying my shoelaces, childhood habit that developed from a hatred of having to tie my laces every so often.

    They literally never come undone and generally it looks tidier.

    Being on the dole as cut me away from such annoyances like shoe laces and instead left we with a more practical solution.

    I dont tie it either of those ways, I think I just learned to tie them myself and stuck to that, never see anyone do the it the same way.

    Loosen the lace all the way down, and then shove the untied laces down each side of your shoe.

    You need the laces on the front looking perfect, going straight across not crisscrossing.

    Tying laces are for nerds.

    I only own one pair of shoes that have laces that need to be tied, my gym shoes.

    Laces are for non lazy people.
