I've seen a lot of ATSV fans mention Hobie's blue laces but I haven't seen a shoelace code guide for people who are just hearing about this that's meant to reach the ATSV fans. The Shoelace Code is a code used originally in the punk scene, but has floated into other alt subcultures. The code isn't used on just any shoe, but specifically black Doc Martens and with them being ladder laced. It was designed to help people know who was an ally who shared similar values to you and who was a foe who held the opposite values of yours. Thus they caused a lot of fights and targeted attacks toward people wearing laces you didn't agree with. White - You're a white supremacist Red - You're a Neo Nazi Blue - You've killed a cop or are anti-law enforcement Yellow - You've been/are a part of an anti-racist movement or are anti racist/facist Purple - You're LGBTQ+ or a strong ally of the community Pink - Feminist Orange - Rarely used but can signify you're an exconvict or a sharp (skinhead against racial prejudice) Green - You're just neutral or a peace punk Black - You're a traditional punk kid or just bought some Doc Martens and are wearing them without meaning Lately, people have stopped using the lace code as much and many people in alt subcultures have let go of the meanings. However, some people still stick by the shoelace code strongly. There are DEFINITELY more thought out posts on the shoelace code to read. I suggest if you're someone who's interested in it, really do a lot of research into it.

so this 30/40 year old shady guy came up to me on a bus, and looking at my shoelaces asked "anarchy?"
i, extremely confused, said yes, and he preceeded to dap me up?
he asked if i wanted a tattoo and then i again said yes, he told me his name, where to find him, said "Godspeed to you" and fucked off
truly pinnacle of public transport. it was so terrifying
also for context,

in Polish shoelace code one black and one red in boots mean anarchy

I said "I like your shoelaces" out loud in the room where the autistic kids hang out during the pep rally at school and one girl immediately responded "i know what you are."
I suppose our reputation proceeds us

One thing I have found about having purple shoelaces is I can no longer tell if someone genuinely likes my shoelaces or if their asking if I’m on tumblr.

So are we still doing the
"Hey, I like your shoelaces" code in this day and age of Tumblr? Or is it something else now?

guys guys guysssssssss(gn), fellow tumblrinas I NEED to show this to someone
I found this on someone's Quotev profile (which I am obviously not linking for safety) and I think this is SO funny. Who brought it over to Quotev, you think? Do they... know?
actually, I might as well ask, I think some Quotevians came over! welcome, internet-ers :)
can a quotevian tell me if this is...satire? genuine? something common and widely spread and well-known? I am so curious!
(adding this because bad faith and piss on the poor: I am not trying to make fun of individuals or like, "the Quotev demographic", this is all fun and delight and fascination)
