Do your shoelaces come undone?

[Song of Sverige has been delivering the hard-hitting, relevant journalism that you demand for over two years, and we think you'll find this post to hit especially hard. -editor]

Do your shoelaces come undone? Mine do, all the time. Or at least, they did... Now, thanks in large part to Wikipedia's page on reef knots and Ian's Shoelace Site, I have corrected this terrible problem.

It is a fact almost too shameful to admit, but it is true... Unbeknownst to myself, I, a 26-year-old nearly-college-educated man, have been tying my shoes with granny knots for the whole of my adult life.

I'll leave the technical details out of this hard-hitting blog post, but if your shoelaces come undone, forcing you to resort to double knots, you too may have this problem.

Fortunately, there is hope. Visit Ian's page on slipping shoelaces, and rid yourself of undone-coming shoelaces once and for all!

I spent three hours reading Wikipedia on knots, and it's all your fault. You horrible person.
