      I always assumed you called them thongs because the bit that goes between your toes looks like the underwear going up a butt-crack.

        You got it backwards. Think about it. Beachwear has been a thing since around 1900, while visible underwear wasn’t a thing until recently.

        Easy way to remember is to think that necrosis usually starts at the extremities.
