[–] foggy@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (1 child) This 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. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Una@europe.pub 9 points 11 months ago 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. permalink fedilink source parent
