Claytons

Well, Claytons is something that people use to talk about things that are there, but they aren't really there. It's like when your mom says she'll give you ice cream if you finish all your veggies, but then she doesn't actually give you ice cream. She's given you a Claytons ice cream, which means it's not really there. Claytons is named after a kind of drink that was made to look like whiskey, but it didn't have any alcohol in it - kind of like a pretend whiskey. So when people say something is a Claytons, they mean it's not really the thing they're talking about, even though it looks like it. Does that make sense?
