    Meanwhile being “the bomb” is good, but “bombing” is bad.

    But if you’re “shit” that’s bad but “the shit” is good.

      Also if you’re fucking, good for you, but if you’re fucked… Good for you as well.

    I thought this was new slang by the presentation, but is this the same shit we had when i grew up?

    “Now we’re cooking!” - good - things are going well

    “Oh shit, youre cooked.” - bad - youre done for

      Modern slang often seems to be recycled slang with a new cadence that makes it feel more Gen Z. There is some truly unique stuff too, but it’s kind of funny how just changing how you use a word in a sentence or with a specific inflection can make it feel fresher.

      Also “Their goose is cooked” is like a predecessor to “Their ass is grass.”

    For me as a 39yo I feel like this one never really explaining. I’m pretty sure both cooked and cooking have been used in this way before. And I actually like it, I feel like they both express the thing pretty well.

        One’s goose being cooked is an idiom from at least 200 years ago. The transfer of that meaning to generally being a single adjective rather than a full phrase is probably at least 100 years old.

        And as more evidence, here’s an issue of Boys Life magazine, from August 1938, that uses the phrase “he’s cooked” to describe someone who is going to lose a sporting event. So it’s at least 87 years old, maybe older.

    As an Australian, “cooked” has been in my vernacular for over a decade atp.

    My “old woman yells at cloud” moment is that I really don’t like pronouncing these words and I wish the slang was different 😆
