Checkup from the neck up

Suggesting this is a way of saying someone is talking or acting crazy. Used to express disbelief, skepticism, or simple mocking. Indicates a level of ridicule serious enough to move the subject away from what the other person has said, and onto the state of mind of the speaker.
"If you think you can get away with driving 50 more miles with the 'Empty' light on, you need a checkup from the neck up."

check mate situation

A situation in which failure is the only option available.
There are no other moves left. You just have exhausted every other possible option and the chances of a plan actually working after a check mate situation are zero to none.
Steve: I have to read 60 pages/write a 20 page thesis that's due in an hour and I haven't started. WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?

Friend: I don't know what to tell you- sounds like a check mate situation to me.

drive by check-in

when you 'check in' using the Facebook Places facility, but you are not actually at the place you checked into.

This could be to fool people into thinking you are in one location when you are in fact in a different location close by.

You might also do this to appear cool on facebook by checking into exciting sounding locations. It allows a person to 'check into' a bar or club near where they live, when they are in fact at home in bed.

You might also check in whilst in a car.... driving past a location. hence the definition of drive by check-in
A. Hey Amy.... just seen that you checked into "Sonic bar and Club"??

B. No i'm actually at the home.... did a cheeky check in at Sonic on my way past!

A. HAHA a drive by check-in you sly dog!

Check yo self

A command that is blurted out, usually angrily, by one individual to another as a condemnation of the latter's behaviour, actions or poor choice of words. Those who indict another with such a phrase normally do so if the said individual has severely offended or insulted them, and are calling upon the individual to think about what they have done and atone for their lack of judgement.

Variations of this phrase, such as "Check yo self foo!" and "Check yo self before ya wreck yo self" are also used to communicate the same message: correct your behaviour (idiot/before you get in trouble)
Check yo self before ya wreck yo self. them shotgun bullets are bad fo' ya health!
