   Well, if the entire phrase is used, the clam would be happier, but then there’s no joke: “happy as a clam in mud at high tide“

   in Spanish, there’s an expression that translates, “as bored as an oyster.” It’s hard out there for a mollusk.

   Don’t we all, at some time or other, have the same thoughts as the clam?

   I never did understand the expression “happy as a clam.”

   Way to go Doug, teach those idioms a lesson and show them who’s boss. Not to split hairs, but I do have my foot in both camps. The etymology of “happy as a clam” is based on the full form of the phrase “happy as a clam in mud at high tide” (a clam that cannot be dug up and eaten, which therefore could be considered happy). Just some food for thought.

    It has been suggested that open clams give the appearance of smiling.

    Or my suggestion as a supporter of the travel industry “Happy as a clam on holiday?
