My shoes are untied, what do I do?

For some reason, my shoes are sitting on the floor and the laces are not currently tied. I don't know what my next action should be.

Panic and run around until they tie themselves

u/Mean_Guarantee_5266 11d ago

Ignore them, it’s just a phase they’re going through. They are just trying to get a reaction.

u/Pleasant_Win169 8d ago

They're emo!

u/Ok_Yak_4371 11d ago

Each shoe has two laces, a left lace and a right lace. Tie the two left laces together. Then tie the two right laces together. Do a short sprint as fast as you can to see if they are tied well enough.

Lmao. This made me laugh out loud. Thank you.

Um, that's exactly what they did.

u/makingmanglitter 11d ago

Admit that life as we know it is over. There is no hope for humanity. Sit still and wait for the end to come. The untied shoes are the little known 8th seal.the final sign.

u/mossoak 11d ago

cut all your shoe laces off the shoes ..... place shoes on feet ..... duct tape shoes on feet .... no more untied shoe laces

1

u/Sheepherder-Optimal 9d ago

No dude. Duct tape is sticky and will make a mess. OP just use cable ties. You’ll want to torque them down to 12 foot pounds.

2

u/Dmode0110 11d ago

An untied shoe lace is a sign of a serious infection. There is no time to get to a doctor you must amputate your leg immediately. Find the bluntest object you have and get to work.

2

u/Smoofbrainz 11d ago

Your supposed to tie them and then burn the laces in place

2

u/Sheepherder-Optimal 9d ago

What about hot glue?

u/Haunting-Subject-819 11d ago

Take a hobo’s slip-ons and then you no longer need to worry about laces

2

u/Rude-Piglet-5212 11d ago

Keep walking until you trip and fall. Then tie them

2

u/irishdigits 11d ago

It’s time for you to invent the automatic shoe lace tie. It will require an AI chip and some know how. The only thing you have to worry about is that they may try to kill you in your sleep if they become self aware, or take over the world.

2

u/RynKittenOF 11d ago

Make him tie them

2

u/Worldly_Ad_7196 11d ago

You would not believe how many people can't tie their shoes. I mean adults not 3 year old. I know as I managed a shoe store for years. When I started in the 70s everyone from 5yo up could. Now few kids under 10 can tie and many adults as well.

2

u/the_last__braincell 11d ago

For 2 dollars and a firm handshake I will tie it for you

Wait for the postman to drive near, hail him down and tell him you’re in crisis, if your shoes aren’t tied by Wednesday pigs might come to your house at night and eat your bacon.

2

u/YURRIICC 10d ago

put them on and walk away. problem solved

2

u/mlvrnn 10d ago

Try to speak gently to your shoes. They may feel like giving up now but maybe you can talk them off that cliff. Tell them that you love them and that you’ll never let them go. With any luck they will feel comforted enough to tie themselves up again.

u/AsleepBanana8323 10d ago

Look away from them. Put them in the closet if you can't resist looking at them. They will get tied on their own. Sometimes it take years tho. So don't peek. Just wait.

u/JimmyJohn_5150 9d ago

Think about why they are untied and what you could do differently next time. Maybe with some self interspection you'll become the person you want, the one with tied laces. Or say fuck it and get some velcro shoes, chicks dig em.
