Thou shalt not thong!

imageThe pastor’s vocabulary could have used a little updating before he addressed his concerns that the young people were taking casual dress at morning services just a bit too far. “I’ll bet half of the young ladies out there are wearing thongs this morning.” Though he was thinking of the ” flip flop” shoes of his youth, not sexy underwear, he certainly had everyone’s attention.

  1. My mother always called flip flops “thongs.” She was the only person I knew who called them that. But my mother called a lot of things by weird names. When I was a little kid, I always attributed her eccentricities to the fact that she’d been born in Tennessee. It was the only explanation I could think of.

    • We called them flip flops but I remeysome people said thongs. I hated them. The white part always got filthy and I tear them up playing rowdy and find myself barefoot. It was not uncommon for those to be our only summer shoes when cash was short.
