Regardless you continue to do so anyway through wishful thinking.

Checking your phone over and over again after days of being left on delivered is exemplified through this term.

Lucas: Well where did you last have it?

Thomas: By my desk..

Lucas: Did you check the drawer?

Thomas: Yeah like a thousand times.

Opening the fridge door 

The phrase “I keep opening the fridge door means just what it sounds like but also applies to phones. You open the fridge door when you’re bored and don’t know what you want to eat or what to do. This can also be applied to apps you may open on your phone but don’t really want to, you’re just bored or not sure what to do.

Example 1: *opens fridge door* “What am I doing? I don’t want to open this.” *few seconds later* “Can I stop opening the fridge door? I’m not even hungry.”

Example 2: *after several minutes of opening random phone apps and locking and unlocking your phone.* “I keep opening the fridge door” *locks phone only to immediately unlock it again for no reason* “Dangit!” *tosses phone beside self*
