    My wife always says “happy as a clam”

    I told her I don’t think Clams are actually happy.

    I disagree with the results. I don’t believe they’re happy doing nothing all day

    Clams don't have to do taxes.

    Definitely more happier than me and my W2 in my trailer.

    Why would clams be happy? It has been suggested that open clams give the appearance of smiling. The derivation is more likely to come from the fuller version of the phrase, now rarely heard - 'as happy as a clam at high water'. Hide tide is when clams are free from the attentions of predators; surely the happiest of times in the bivalve mollusc world.
