Offered in response to this story, which seemed to have caught the fancy of several on the desi blogosphere and specifically for those more familiar with the US lingo: in the land down-under, thongs does not refer to the undergarment but to a pair of flip-flops/chappals/sandals.
So if you ever hear an Australian girl say she is planning to wear her thongs – don’t get any ideas.
Similarly, if a guy happens to mention it, don’t judge too quickly.
(as aside, for the few regular visitors (?), I am alive and well: shifted my base – in fact, from one coast to another – so settling in etc. Regular rantingprogramming to resume shortly).
I hope you are not planning to do the dead parrot skit with this blog.
That is just mean.
