When did this:
Thong~a rubber or leather foot covering
held in place by a strap between the big and second toes; usually
worn casually in warm summer months; likely to cause blisters during
the first few wearings.

Thong~a fabric undergarment providing
minimal coverage, held in place by a strap between the...um, cheeks.
Can be worn year long although remains startling to be seen in
public.
Thank goodness there have been no reports
of blisters.

challenge. I have nearly made it, people! Only six more letters to
go!!
So true Laura - When the kids were old enough to wear "flip flops" i called them "thongs" once. My kids made fun of me. My parents called them "go aheads". Have you every heard that name?
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of 'go-aheads'! I do get looks when I use the T word rather than flip-flops. I guess it is our 'old people' crutch to bear!!
DeleteGood job Laura! Loved this...
ReplyDeleteThank you!!
DeleteIt's just a guess here, but I am thinking it has to do with the V of the shoe looking like the V of the material, that is how they both ended up being called the 'thong'.
