As far as I know there are 2 distinct ways to tie laces.
Loop, swoop, and pull.
Bunny ears, cross, pull.
Is there another way to do it?


Uh...what are "Bunny Ears?" I had a buddy learn me how to tie my shoes back in pre-school and I've been doing things the same way since...I think it's the Loop, Swoop, and Pull method. I wear nice big boots everywhere. I sit me arse down whenever I have to put 'em on or take 'em off. I take my good old time doing so, too. I think it's good for digestion. I've had many Koreans and foreigners complaining about it, but I like my boots and detest slip-ons and sneakers. I always take my boots off before entering a home, else a vision of my mother with a wooden spoon ready to tan my backside enters my head. When it comes to restaurants, I'll take a place with tables any day, although I've sat at many Korean-style places over the years. I compensate by changing positions every five minutes. I start with Japanese-style. Then, when the Koreans say, "sit comfortably," I change to Korean cross-legged style. That lasts about two minutes before worse pain comes compared to the Japanese-style and one leg squirts out, usu the left first. Then, I'll tuck that one back in and then the right will fly out. I just wish the Korean tables were a little higher, so I'm not bumping my knees on the edges before and roasting my shins against the coals after if I'm actually able to get my legs under the table(so I can actually enjoy my food without it dropping/dripping/falling/oozing all over my shirt, jacket, lap, tie, crotch, whatever, wherever).
