They fall more into the slippers/sandal category rather than shoes. Its got an inverted V on the top where you slip your toes through. They're mostly made of rubber although other materials are also used. They usually have flat soles with varying thickness but then again I've seen some pairs with low heels on them as well. They're ideal as beach wear or just lounging around. I think they are the most comfortable things in the world! Also called thongs or havains. Its great for a chilled out, relaxed look in the summer and goes great with nicely painted nails! :)

In England, they call flip-flops "thongs" (at least, the English dad of my friend called it that)
In Hawaii, it is "slippers".
Somewhere else, it can be called "sandals". I dunno.
Flip-flops is what I called 'em, when I lived in New York.
Here's the type of show I've been taught "flip-flops" refer to: http://www.pocopattino.com/shoephotos/Haveana-FlipFlop-Gold.jpg
Yes, once you get used to wearing them, flip-flops are comfortable. Currently I live in Hawaii, and many people wear them. School, home, beach, and for some, at their jobs-- they wear them. It doesn't get cold or snow here, so its all good.

Hideous things. You probably know what they are from the other answers.
Like most things, become comfortable when you get used to them. To the inexperienced they chafe between the toes, and make walking awkward.
For the beach, but i'd rather just go barefoot.

A flat sole with two straps on either side of the foot. These are very casual, so wearing them to the office would be a no-no. The beach or shopping would be a good place to wear them.
