The 2016 equivalent of the mid-late 2000s phrase "you got served". For one to be put on clams, they must be showed up by somebody who is considered of lesser ability (i.e. an underdog).

The phrase's origin is unclear but it did originate from the suburban town of Montville, NJ. The thought process behind the phrase seems to tie into the nature of clams to be served as an appetizer (i.e. clams casino) on a platter for group consumption. In this example, it points to somebody being put out in the open to be picked on by a multitude of bystanders.

A pick me is a woman that is willing to do anything for male approval. She will embarrass or throw other women under the bus to achieve this goal. The unfortunate thing about a pick me is usually the men they are trying to seek approval from are of poor quality and treat women badly, leaving little real benefit for the pick me.
