Is it normal that i call thongs shoes?

I went to America and forgot my shoes, thongs so I went to a shop and asked if they had any, the shop keepers just looked so shocked and I couldn't figure out what was wrong, so I just left. is that normal?

    Should have asked for flip flops or sandals. You live, you learn. On an unrelated topic... I call condoms, pineapples. Get it? Pineapple rings are round and condoms... you know what? Forget it I am clearly retarded.

  • Thongs are the same things as "flip-flops" or even "sandals" but calling them "shoes" is a bit of a stretch. In my country, it's illegal to drive wearing them.

      • Maybe you don't have that law down there, though....... Maybe you do, but you don't know it. O.O

        There are so many nit-picky laws. :(
