Sign You Are in California


This was a sign on the boardwalk in San Francisco. In case the cell phone pic is too hard to read, it says "No thongs except on feet." You'd never need a sign like this in the Midwest.

No you won't see signs like in the Midwest, but you sure aught too. Some girls have no shame.

We could stand to have them down here in the south also.

There's nothing quite as disgusting as a middle aged, redneck, Meth junkie with her thong hanging out.

One of the many reasons I avoid Walmart.

Zoe and Tysgirl: I was thinking of the nice weather in San Fran which allows the wearing of thongs more months than here in the Midwest. Both a blessing and a curse (as you point out). But it sure was sunny and warm there!

To me...thongs will ALWAYS be those rubber flip flops. I scared the hell out of a teenaged boy cashier at Target last year by asking him where the "children's thongs" were. He looked at me with such horror that I started laughing and well, yeah...that simply made it worse.

Maria: That would have been a riot to see! My friend, Lucy, has a flight instructor who calls the flip flops thongs as well. As you can imagine, he gets a lot of snickers from the college kids when he tells them not to wear thongs.

Thongs - not sexy and not hygienic. Ick.

Let's Kill Saturday Night: True, especially the foot kind of thongs!

Part of me wants to sign up for enforcing that law, but only in CA or FL.
