The Aglet!

Do you know what's an 'Aglet'? The aglet is the plastic/metal tip at the end of the shoelace. It is one of the most useful inventions and it can be seen almost anywhere, but hardly anyone is aware that it is called the aglet!

So what is the aglet for?

It makes it easier to tie your shoelaces.



OR!

To punish prisoners and convicted labours and to torture them in a cruel, extreme and despicable manner.

Do not believe this myth! It is said that the aglet was created by a man called Colonel Sandals from a group called the KFC which stands for the 'Kentucky Fried Cobblers'.

'Chairman of the Kentucky Fried Cobblers'

It is said they were fried by a group of cannibals while looking for materials in the 'Lost Jungle of Stuffs' for their shoe production and were tortured viciously.

They managed to escape, and from that day onwards, they decided to make the world a better place to live and also to enhance life. So they created the aglet and made it convinient for everyone to tie their shoelaces.
