Comment on "Rizz", "cooking" and "based" are going to be stereotypical old people words one day
foggy@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoThis version of cook seems aligned with “hold on.”
As in “it’s not yet apparent that what’s happening makes sense/is good.”
Where’s that tiktok linguist kid when ya need him.

Cooking - you are doing something good
Cooked, getting cooked - someone is messing around with you and you fall for it, kinda like this maybe could be better explanation.
“You are cooking” - you made a song, for example, and it was great song.
“You are cooked” - kinda like when you, as a child, do something bad and your parents are going to be mad when they find out — you are basically cooked.
