'fraid so.
I give it 30 - 40 more years.
String, Thread and Rope decide to hit the town. It's Strings's birthday, and they are going to paint the town red. The three buddies walk into the bar, sit down, and start talking about what they want. The bartender walks up to the group and asks String, "Are you a String"? String replies, "Yes."
The bartender points to a sign behind the bar, "We don't serve strings", and tells him he has to leave as this bar doesn't serve Strings. Rope and Thread are supportive and tell String, "Let's go, we don't need this place, we'll go to the next bar."
So the three head off. They enter the next bar, sit down, and try to decide if they want beers or shots or both. Again, the bartender approaches, and asks String, "Are you a String", while pointing to the "We don't serve strings" sign behind the bar.
String and his buddies, Rope and Thread, are clearly upset. But, String quickly states, "yes, I'm a String, can I use your restroom, then we'll leave". Well, his buddies respected his choice and decided to wait for their friend. String finished using the restroom, came back, disguised, he tied himself into knots.
String sits down next to Rope and Thread, the bartender approaches again and asks, "Hey, aren't you that String?" and string replied, "I'm a frayed knot".
