Terraria for me
Terraria made me think they were some sort of instrument because of how it looked.

I’m glad so many people responded and most people got it right! But, I’ll have to do a real poll to figure out if there’s any actual correlation here, and also account for the fact that people who know what it is were more likely to answer than those who don’t.

I believe there was a book in the 80s called Sniglets that made up words for things and this was one of them. I didn’t remember what it was called. Any or all of this memory could be wrong.
All words are made up
Most of them were not made up recently, and in a book of words made up for that book.
What’s that got to do with it
Being naturally occuring or contrived influences their legitimacy and staying power.
You win again reality
Aglets. Can’t remember where I learned the word.
Could this be why they implemented the velcro sneaker?
If you’ve seen “Cocktail”, they’re flugelbinders.
