Rain dog

A Rain Dog is a dog caught in the rain, with its whole trail washed away by the water so he can't get back home. A stranded dog, who wants nothing better than to get home.

People who live outdoors, people who sleep in doorways, loners knit together by some corporeal way of sharing pain and discomfort.

A term coined by Tom Waits on his album named Rain Dogs
Inside a broken clock
Splashing the wine with all the rain dogs
Taxi, we’d rather walk
Huddle a doorway with the rain dogs
For I am a rain dog too

(from Tom Waits' Rain Dogs)

rain check

A promise that an unaccepted offer will be renewed in the future.

This term comes from baseball, where in the 1880s it became the practice to offer paying spectators a rain check entitling them to future admission for a game that was postponed or ended early owing to bad weather. By the early 1900s the term was transferred to tickets for other kinds of entertainment, and later to a coupon entitling a customer to buy, at a later date and at the same price, a sale item temporarily out of stock.
I can't come to dinner Tuesday but hope you'll give me a rain check.

Royal Rainbow

Related to "lasers" and "shoop da whoops", a "Royal Rainbow" is what happens when a taco is forced into the mouth of the person charging their laser. The caster instead releases a Royal rainbow, and possibly the swallowing of one's laser, and can end in the shooper asploding.

Q. Why do I have to pay a rain tax?
