check the fridge 

When you just checked the fridge and realized that once again, that pesky Elon Musk has stuck yet another dead deer in your fridge.

Friend: I'm really hungry. can I get something to eat?
Me: I think I have some ham to make a sandwich, go and check the fridge

Friend: checks fridge **screams** asks Why is there a dead deer in here?
Me: Oh no! Not again!

The Facebook Fridge-Check Syndrome 

When you are bored or you've been away from Internet access or just whenever you log in to Facebook over and over even though pretty much nothing changes, but you just do it to a) have something to do b) make sure no one's magically done something cool. Called such because it's like when you're hungry or (more likely) bored and so you keep checking the fridge in the hopes that something new and exciting will appear, even though you know it's just week-old leftovers.

Dude 1: Hey, have you noticed Lou's been on Facebook a lot today?

Dude 2: Yeah, he was camping all last week...must have the Facebook Fridge-Check Syndrome.
