False Checking

1. Fraudulently claiming something as fact-checked to support an arguement when there is insufficient or contradictory evidence.

2. Citing potentially unreliable sources or sources with contradictory information to support a position, assuming that the audience will not thoroughly examine the references.
Politicians and journalists frequently employ deceptive tactics, such as gaslighting and false checking, in an attempt to manipulate public perception when presented with compelling evidence that challenges their assertions.

high-five rain-check

What you verbally give your work-buddy when something you're attempting goes right, but you're currently "all yucky-messy" from the dirty/disgusting job you're presently engaged in, and so you don't wanna soil him by actually slapping his still-clean palm (i.e., he's not actually handling the greasy/muddy/gloopy items the way you are, but he's still providing needed assistance; perhaps he's aiming a trouble-light, occasionally actuating switches/buttons and/or operating other controls to test the device you're repairing, holding items like drapes or hoses/cables up out of the way so that you don't accidentally soil/damage them, etc.) with your icky hand. "I'll slap palms wif ya later, Pal, after I get washed up some --- consider yourself high-fived for now!"
A high-five rain-check can be a similar situation to a delayed hug, handshake. back-clap, etc... in all of these instances, you are merely postponing an appreciative/affectionate/encouraging/celebratory gesture until a more appropriate/convenient time. If you strongly wish to have the pleasant action administered right away, however --- such as if you feel that the person deserves immediate reward/gratification because of the exceptional effort/bravery he put out, or if he has to leave shortly --- a proxy-hug can sometimes be an adequate/reasonable option, provided there is an agreeable bystander present whom you can request to "do the honors" in your place.
