This strip is...even weirder than Cartilage Head.  Humorous, but waaaay bizarre.

Yup. I think it's the technically the little deal at the end of any kind of rope or lace or whatever. But the shoelace thing is how I learned it.

The absurdity is veiled by the poetic charm with which the poet invests it.

Book of Revelations is the aglet of the Bible?

Aglet seems like it could be the crux of many bad metaphors.

"We reached the aglet of our relationship..."

"In the aglet of the game..."

"It's not over till the aglet is hot-compressed onto the it."

I slipped the aglet through its eyelet in the sublet by the outlet of the inlet. Then I made an omelet.
