They aren't thongs unless they come from the Thong region of Australia, otherwise they are just sparkling flip-flops

Don't be silly, thongs have nothing to do with Australia, they were invented in the 19th Century by Frenchman Philippe Follope.

Correct. And if they don't come from the Sandalé region in France, they're not thongs. They're just sparkling toe slippers.
