Training Clutch

The clutch on a manual transmission that is inevitably worn out well before it should be by the inexperienced driver who operates it. This is normally the first clutch that the driver will have ever operated, however, in some cases drivers (female) will go through two or even three clutches before either learning proper operation of the vehicle or scurrying back to an automatic transmission.

The three key bad habits of a person operating a training clutch are as follows:
1. Using the clutch and gas pedal on a hill instead of the center pedal.
2. Excessive use of the clutch while starting in 1st gear or shifting gears. This action causes the engine to rev high (4000rpm) until the clutch is released to the engine bogging at a low RPM.
3. Releasing the clutch too quickly causing the vehicle to stall.

Stopped on a hill at a red light Bob turns to Chris and says "Hey man, why is your engine wound out to 4000RPM?"
Chris replies "Dude, I'm riding the clutch so we don't roll backwards!"
Bob can't believe his ears and blurts out "Woah, Training Clutch!"

Camel Clutch

A sexual finishing move where a male sits atop a female's back before having an orgasm. In this move, the male locks his fingers underneath the female's chin and pulls up as hard as he can while blowing a nut. Typically this move is combined with another move called the Fishook, or better, the Double Fishook.

Sarah: "Did you hear about what happened to Amy last night?"

Micah: "Did he try another sex move again?"

Sarah: "Yeah, Barry gave her the Camel Clutch and she can't keep her head straight anymore!"

the clutch

A particular feeling of stomach discomfort following the consuption of greasy, unhealthy food (especially McDonalds). Symptoms may include nausea, but are most commonly a feeling of bloatedness, gas, and weight "clutching" your stomach. Theories explaining the origins of the clutch include the mixture of hot greasy food followed by 64 oz. of cold, carbonated soda mixing in the stomach. This affliction is especially dangerous when experienced while driving an automobile.

May also be considered the undesired relative of "the itis."

"5 miles after eating a Big Mac Combo Meal from a highway rest area, I was hit by The Clutch. The rest of my drive sucked."
