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.

checks

Not to be confused with the payment method, Czech people, dictionary definitions, etc.

Checks are people who go around "just checking" to see if your door is unlocked. Some may also check windows or other lockable areas. They'll often do this on a routine basis in a given area.

Mostly they are bottom-tier, opportunistic burglars who, as soon as they realize your door is locked, will be gone and continue on to "check" the next one. Catching them relies on being able to notice and bait their pattern successfully.

Some may also be homeless, sex offenders, or otherwise fuckin weirdos, so it's really just best to keep your doors locked, this isn't the 1950's, people.
"Yo, is someone trying to open the door?"
"Wut?"
"I said someone just tried to get inside the fuckin' house!"
"Oh, those are just the Checks. Evening rounds, nothing to worry about. They're already gone."
