White Trash Welfare Check 

Opening the oven to check if there are any pots, pans, and/or Tupperware left inside before using it to cook. This is a reference to the common practice among European-Heritage Americans living below the poverty line to use the oven as a storage place when not in use.
I had to do a White Trash Welfare check so my MeeMaw didn't burn the house down like Mama did preheating that oven full of Tupperwares back in '82.

Just Write a Check and Shut Up. 

A polite way of saying put your money where your mouth is, or "Put Up or Shut Up."
Warren: We need to all of us pay our fair share.

Chris: Just write a check and shut up.

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.

Foot prisons 

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.
The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!

cornholio 

Ruler of Lake Titicaca. Rumored to have a bunghole that gets very angry if it does not receive toilet paper. Cornholio the Great is often seen walking around with his shirt over his head and his hands in the air, chanting songs about his power, and his bunghole.
"I am Cornholio! You do not want to face the wrath of my bunghole, for I need TP!"
Butthead: Shut up, Beavis! (uh huh huh huh)
Beavis: Um, okay. (heh heh heh heh).
