Do you tie your shoelaces "correctly"?

So I was doing my observations for one of my ed classes, and one day it involved sitting in on an early elementary music class. The kids had little pouches that went around their waists for their recorders and stuff, and the teacher was like "Alright kids, if you don't know how to tie it go see Danielle and she'll help you!" I gave her a look and she was like (right in front of the kids, lol) "They're in kindergarten, most of them don't even know how to tie their shoes yet." And as they all lined up in front of me I looked down at each kid and saw that most of them had either slip-on or velcro shoes. Then I looked down at my own shoes and I was wearing slip-on shoes, too. I laughed. >.>

Anyway, that story is only slightly relevant. I just wanted to see if anyone had seen this yet:

I didn't have any shoes with laces on me (I'm at my mom's house) but I tried it on the drawstring on my pajama pants because I'm bored and I'm a nerd. It actually is faster, but it's kinda hard to get the hang of at first. I dunno if I'll switch my method because I don't really think about it anymore.

nope, i tie it extremely uniquely


Smooth edit.

I tie mine by looping them through the lace hooks to keep the shoe from compressing over the tongue. It's a little trick I learned from Runner's Factory.
