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!

Shoelace foreskins.

Korrekt ist Nadel. Wenn sie aus Metall ist, kann man auch Pinke dazu sagen.

@ObviouslyNotBanana Aglets, BTW, are precisely the right size to go into a seat belt buckle, jam, and not come out again. That cost me a couple of hundred dollars and it turns out I'm not the only one...
Perfectly mildly interesting fact
Those are shoe laces. They help keep your shoes on your feet.
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.

Yet another example of the US being under the thumb of big agletculture.
Do I get a pass if English is not my first language?
No, before now I did not know the name for it in my first language either.
Lace nipples
The Simpsons told me what an aglet is years ago.
The question is, do you know what this is?
That's a Wilson.

I have no idea.
They're called aglets. If you didn't already know that, I'm going to assume you have a life and aren't a gigantic nerd, and hope you still invite me to parties despite occasionally spouting useless information.

"The plastic tips at the end of shoe laces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister."

I don't know the name but I can tell you how sad they make me when they break and tear off and you have to use a lighter on the now extremely frayed end(s) of your shoelace for just a few seconds, and then pinch off the flame just lightly burning your fingies while molding the shoelace end into a cohesive black carcinogen.

Aglets. Now you know.
Looks like Sandstorm by Darude
Okay I'll bite,
The rude who?
Aka if you don't watch phineas and ferb, you're not my friend
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
It don fuckin matter what its called, it better have teeth marks on it brother.
Ah, but once you know of the aglets, do you know what you put the aglets through? Maybe you should be friends with people who don't know aglets but do know the word for the holes
Aglet gang, rise up
I've spent hours looking for them so I could finally craft the Lightning boots.
I don't remember, but I know for a fact that cats are their natural predators
That's easy: they are the Tube nipples of the tube titties
Shoelaces
