Is it more embarrassing to stop to tie your shoe or to walk with your shoe untied?
“I don’t think so but I’m pretty sure it’s only as embarrassing as you make it out to be. Just don’t trip I guess.” – Chris Ulysse (’27)
“Not really because shoes get untied all the time. What’s embarrassing is really spilling your drink on yourself or dropping whatever is in your hand when you bend down to retie it… I think what stresses me out the most is someone waiting behind me to pass by when I stop to tie it.” – Ananya Prabhuram (’27)
“I don’t think walking around campus with your shoes untied is embarrassing. Do whatever you want in this life, if you want those shoes to be untied do you. Who knows what the next “trend” will be, maybe its keeping your shoes untied now.” – Victoria Hatton (’25)
“Yes, I don’t wanna step on your shoelace and make you trip.” – Ryan Gray (’25)
“No. I don’t believe so. I think that everyone is so consumed with themselves that no one is even paying attention. You don’t have to be self-conscious; you’ll be much happier if you let that go. Just live your life and make mistakes, the best part is no one cares.” – Ali Wanink (’27)
