Cousins by the half dozens 

A typical descriptor of the modern extended nuclear family. No longer can people claim to have dozens of cousins when average children per family rates have dropped so drastically since the baby boom era.
Vinny: Hey Joe! How was your family reunion paisano?
Joe: Hey Vinny! It was good. My nonna and aunts and uncles were all there. There was plenty of linguine left over since I got cousins by the half dozens.

The Bakers Dozen 

The sexual maneuver which involves 12 tubs of cream cheese and 6 American Ninja Bitches. Females line up with two tubs of cream cheese each and dip their breasts into the cream cheese as the male licks their titties like an all you can eat bagel buffet until all the cream cheese is finished. He then finishes by jizzing a 98% cream cheese semen mixture into all six of the females.
Kyle hates vanilla sex. His favorite move is the Bakers Dozen.

Mr. Baker pulled a bakers dozen in the kindergarten class.

The Dirty Dozen 

A group of friends who do everything together.
Eat, Drink, Bake, Sleep, Laser Tag, & Mobb, while breaking various laws in the process. Ordinary nights with the dirty dozen may include group sleepovers, midnight rendezvous, and hot boxing.

Fights and hookups can (and will) occur due to excessive contact with one another.
But no matter through good or bad, this kind of friendship is hard to come by, and is usually short-lasting. Nevertheless, the memories made in the short existance of the dirty dozen will always remain.
-"Hey what are you doing tonight?"
-"Doing something random then crashing at Niki's"
-"Oh..I assume with the dirty dozen like always..."
