The Box Chick 

The Box Chick is a term I came up with to decribe a certain type of woman that you would not normally exclusively date. There is something you like about this person, but your ashamed you like her in a sexual/romantic way. She will always be there for you when you need her to be. But you don't let anyone know your involved with this person. You take her out of the Toy Box when ever you want to play with her..Hence...The Box Chick !

Check the Box 

This is a game drunk guys play at the bar. Each guy tries to hook up with a girl of a different race or look. Such as white, black, asian, south american, indian, ect. Also boxes may include blonde, brunette, redhead, ginger, or black hair. Not a very nice game but one guys play.

Check-in-the-Box 

A "check-in-the-box" and is an action or mandate that a group or authority takes when it doesn't want to be liable for something, so they put on an act that everyone secretly knows is functionally meaningless but has enough good intention so that criticism is often viciously attacked. In the end, if a worst-case scenario presents itself, the group or authority in question can claim they took all the possible precautions they had at their disposal and are not liable for damages while exclaiming how sorry they are things didn't happen as they would have liked. This usually leads to calls for more feel-good protocols and additional checks-in-the-box actions, and if the group or authorities' performance is good enough can even lead to the group or authority being lauded for their benevolence, all the while the people forgetting it was the original check-in-the-box that might have caused the crisis.

Person A: Do you think installing a sign warning people that there is no lifeguard on duty will help prevent drowning?
Person B: (Being honest) Of course not, but it's a check-in-the-box, so we won't be responsible if anything else does happen.
Person A: You're so cynical.

Check in the Box 

The term used to describe the monotonous, rigorous, stab-your-eye-with-a-pencil military process of completing useless routine activities to be rewarded with a check mark on a piece of paper.

"Yeah! In-clearance took 2 days and I filled out the same form 8 times, but at least I got my check in the box for another year!"
