"There's too many kids in this tub, There's too many elbows to scrub, I just washed a behind That I'm sure wasn't mine! There's too many kids in this tub!" —Shel Silverstein, "Crowded Tub"

Stock Phrase(s) for whenever a group of people are squashed together. It also commonly occurs whenever the lights go out. Variations on the phrase include "Who's touching my X" and "Whose X is this?". There's also the Double Entendre variant:

Person #1: "Hey! I found a [item]" Person #2: "That's not a [item]...!"

Said item is usually either phallic or soft depending on who the people are. Can result in Thanks for the Mammary, a Megaton Punch (if person #2 is female), as well as evidence against the Accidental Pervert. Not What It Looks Like also commonly occurs when the lights come back on.
