clam raking 

The act of only swiping only right on a dating app (normally done by men and some ratchets) to collect "a harvest", if you will. Just like with actual clam raking, you get some winners and some losers. Do as you will with the harvest and wait until the next low tide (normally around 12 hours for swipes to reload) and start raking all over again.
"Brah, I'm just going to clam rake within a 2 mile radius, clean house real quick"
"Hey Tony, I matched with your daughter while clam raking on break. You're on vacation next week right?"

clambaking

Apparently, people from Connecticut call hot boxing clambaking. In the words of a certain CT resident “its smoking pot in your car, rolling the windows up...like a clambake.” It combines the wonders of first hand and second hand smoke to maximize THC intake.
Lets close these windows and start clambaking, we'll get so blazed

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
