Opening the Fridge

The act of checking something over and over again when deep down inside you know the outcome will never change. Similarly to opening the fridge over and over again when you realize that no matter how many times you do so it's going to be just as empty as it was beforehand. Regardless you continue to do so anyway through wishful thinking.

Checking your phone over and over again after days of being left on delivered is exemplified through this term. No matter how many times you open your phone, you know deep down that you're not going to hear back anytime soon but you can't help yourself from checking in hopes that maybe you're wrong. Many other situations can be applied to "Opening the Fridge '' such as misplacing something and continuously checking the same spot or looking for someone when you know they aren't around.

Thomas: I cant find my cellphone

Lucas: Well where did you last have it?

Thomas: By my desk..

Lucas: Did you check the drawer?

Thomas: Yeah like a thousand times.

Lucas: Then why are you walking over to it and checking again? Also that drawer is very clearly empty...,

Thomas: Maybe I'm just looking on the wrong side...

Lucas: At this point you're just Opening the Fridge

Thomas: Found it! It was under the desk!

Lucas: Oh Good

Thomas: Dang she still hasn't replied...

Lucas: What did I just say.....
