Yes, that’s why I was confused.

That or shower shoes.

Gross.

That’s what my parents called them anyway. I’m sure my father had been in a lot of places around the world where showering barefoot was a bad idea.

I mean yeah if I’m using some sort of beach/campground shower I’ll wear sandals…

Ok but only if you have special shower sandals that are only used when you take a shower. I mean you must remove your sandals directly after your shower. And you may not use the same sandals if you take a bath.
Well, at least it is the rule in Belgium, we are very strict with sandals and showers.

I find if wearing sandals when the Prequels are on tv… the sandals slow my approach to the remote control to turn the channel over 😉

I don’t like sandals.

(which is incidentally the actual line in AOTC that Hayden was meant to deliver - though no one on set noticed - or cared, so he went on a monologue about granules of sand getting in his sandals…)

I’m pretty sure it was actually “I don’t like sandwiches” and was original meant to be a middle finger to quiznos for charging too much to cater to them on set. The bread was course and rough and the contents always spilled out and got everywhere. Then they realized sandwiches weren’t specific to quiznos and they just dubbed out “wiches” so as not to hinder a future friendship with subway.

They wear thongs out in the desert? All that Tatooine sand trapped between the toes and under the nails…

Thongs with jeans look so bad.

Are thongs and sandals the same thing? I’m totally lost here.

Oh right, in America you call those skimpy underwear bottoms thongs. Weirdos. I think that what we normal people call thongs you call “flip-flops.”

Probably because the underwear looks like sandals for your butt.

I always thought it was the opposite; that thong footwear was so named because the strap went up between your toe crack.

Probably. I believe thong was termed originally for the underwear, then Aussies decided for whatever reason to use the term for sandals. Weird.

The prequels are definitely that bad, but are they as bad as this thread? Discuss.

Wearing “thongs” (plural) are footwear that stays attached to your foot via a “thong” between your toes. We call them “thongs” in Australia and I believe Americans call them “flip-flops”, just like many other things have different names in different countries for the same thing.

Wearing a “thong” (singular) is a piece of underwear that incorporates a “thong” that goes between your butt cheeks and this element is used as the article name to clearly differentiate between it and normal “underwear” since the thong is the differentiating factor. Technically you could wear more than one in which case you could say you were wearing “thongs” but I would imagine this to be rare if not nonexistent and therefor is not related to the word “thongs”.

Sandals don’t use a thong to attach to your foot, instead just having a big loop or an ankle strap as well to properly secure it to your foot. Some sandals can also employ a thong but along with the other elements that make it a sandal. If all it has is the thong, then it is a thong and not a sandal.

Ok, hopefully that clears it up for all OT members 😉

Yeah, definitely still much worse than this thread (at this stage).

Recently Ahmed Best is recording so called ‘Field Notes’ about the Aftermath of him playing Jar Jar Binks.

Field Notes 1:

Field Notes 2:

In Field Notes No.2 Best gets obviously angry that Andy Serkis owns & runs a MoCap Studio.
