I'm almost 40 and I still tie mine with bunny ears.

It's worth learning. It is a much better knot. It's not hard to learn. I used bunny ears for 15 years before I learned. Do your knots loosen pretty much everyday? Mine did. With the improved knot it doesn't.

What's the knot you are referring to??

This one: https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/standardknot.htm

Interestingly the bunny ears one is considered by the person owning the shoelace site as good if done correctly. Maybe I did something wrong before I learned the standard knot. https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/twoloopknot.htm
