Jack burton the check is in the mail

A classic reference!

For those who may not be familiar, "The Check is in the Mail" is a famous phrase made infamous by Jack Burton, a character from the 1986 cult classic film "Big Trouble in Little China". Played by Kurt Russell, Jack Burton is a rugged, wisecracking truck driver who finds himself caught up in a supernatural battle in San Francisco's Chinatown.

In the film, Jack Burton's friend Wang Chi (played by Dennis Dun) is trying to get Jack to take him seriously about a mysterious woman and a powerful artifact. Jack's response is to say, "The check is in the mail!" - a phrase that has since become a humorous way to dismiss or avoid responsibility.

The phrase has since become a meme and a cultural reference point, often used to humorously deflect or procrastinate on a task or commitment.
