    I had a friend who would always light his first cig backwards after a good clam bake.

      Huh I never knew this was a “hot box” phrase, I always heard it as the female equivalent of a “sausage fest” i.e. a social gathering dominated by women

        Clambake has always meant smoking weed in an enclosed space to me, typically a car. See also: fishbowl

          Nah, that’s a hotbox. Unless you’re a woman and only smoking with other women. Then it would be a clambake hotbox.

            Plenty of people, at least at one time, used clambake to refer to a hotbox. “Clambake weed” returns plenty of results, although it does appear the inverse sausagefest definition is more popular. Why can’t it be both?

    Is the meme saying that the speakers with cigarettes are supposed to look like the people getting high or that putting cigarettes in speakers is something one does when high? Or both?
