It’s fine. You’re a clam. You’re not supposed to be happy. You can stay in (the) bed all day. In fact staying in (the) bed all day is a very good thing.
My mother had dozens and dozens of these. I’m sad that I didn’t keep a notebook where I could memorialize these old-time sayings, all of which she absorbed from the folks in the very small town she grew up in.

When someone says that they’re happy as a clam, I guess you need to ask, “which clam?”

Clam’s not happy because it’s not high tide.

How can be “as happy as a clam” if the world is his oyster?

So much for that myth…

A recently rerun “MythTickle” covered this. But not with the usual shrink couch.

He is panicking, he must not be “clam” either.
