Used to be called thongs. Maybe still once in a while, but these are sandals or flip-flips.

These days a thong is a specific type of women's panties or bikini bottom.

Milk shakes, or perhaps malts, if they have malt added.

And a sub or club sandwich.

My son laughs everytime I call it a thong and of course corrects me. I guess I am just old school. Wore my thongs with my Jams!

Jams were knee length shorts mostly worn in the early days by surfers.

Kids have confiscated my computer and won't give it back. I told on them to my wife and she said Santa has it under control. I think that means I'm stuck on either the kindle table or the cell phone till Christmas.
