PDA

View Full Version : I keep finding one shoelace longer than the other

It's only happening on my left shoe. I straighten them out, but the next morning it's the same way again. I don't have a cat, and the dog doesn't like shoes. The laces are never damp from doggy slobber, anyway.

Aliens? Those little shoe fairies from the old MGM cartoons?

Technically, there's only one lace per shoe; it's the left and right sides that are unequal. You need to unlace and relace the shoe.

Well I would say that it could be a shoe sales employee, but that only happens with the right shoe, at least at are store it does.

I'm sure we could find the answer if we refer to some good ol' CSI science....

Shoelaces need stern, consistent training in order to learn the proper way to behave.

If you cut off half of the excess and tie it on to the short side, eventually your laces will learn how you expect them to behave and the problem will go away.

There's also that your feet are not the same size, most likely.

Very few people's are.

As I recall, left and right shoes aren't EXACTLY the same size either. But they help cover up the asymmetry.

Back on topic; the shoelace. Sounds to me like your boyfriend is messing with you. Is he a prankster ? Or perhaps did he just take out some kind of Insurance policy on you, or get Power Of Attorney should you become "mentally incapacitated" ? :eek:

Timberoo, you may want to do a Joyce cover for Marilyn Manson's Mechanical Animals and Prince's Lovesexy. Both would be funny/creepy.

I'm just sayin', if you take requests.

Awesome.

You know, if you play that last part of "A Day in the Life" in reverse, it says "Paul is Joyce. Paul is Joyce." :wink:
