Se**rule**ously, I'm already sick of that word.

global warming :(

Some of us are more baked, though.

based? based on what?

I asked my friend about this and he told me I'm a good Oregon for not knowing what it is... I dunno if he's right >~<

Chat are we cooked?

bro is getting cooked by the word cooked

Nope, climate change Doc. Los Angeles is on fire and the icecaps are melting. Oh, and we just elected Biff president.

chat we're cooked 💀

sorry, but if you're already sick of that word...

Take the perspective of things that get cooked.

If you're being cooked, things aren't exactly going your way... Others around you are having a great time though, dinner is served.

As to being sick of it; OP, you may be turning into a crotchety old man... Not cool dude; that's like, totally lame. :P

I miss deep fried

Makes more sense to me than "based" or "cap." Frfr.

What this means please.

"Cooked" is Gen Z slang, basically means "done."

"This guy's cooked." (He's had too much/he's out of it/he's screwed)

"I'm cooked, chat." (I'm out of options/it's over for me)

In the context of this meme, which is from the movie Back to the Future, Marty is in the past and using slang that hasn't entered popular use yet, so Doc thinks he's talking about cooking food and is confused about what he means.

Also not to be confused with similar "Let them cook" (they're onto something, let's see where this goes).
- Awesome! Thank you so much!
  
  I remember the cene from the movie lol
Aussie slang. Started as people who were cooked ie: fried their brains (could be drugs, more commonly nowadays brainrot from conspiratorial internet influences) , extends to other situations and a euphemism for "fucked"

UD is heavensent for people like me who have to use YT channels like Lessons in Meme Culture (LIMC) to keep up with the kids, but have typically no idea what the new slang means.

Oh shit, looks like OP is crashing out_!_

Wait, is this actually how young people talk or are you gaslighting us?

Lingo and slang changes every decade or so. I don't know why people are surprised that the trends from when they are 14 are no longer cool.
- It's not even every decade. It's basically every 3 weeks
- I'm not surprised that language changes, I just never heard this particular phrasing before but judging from your offendedness, I guess it is used
- Well, they didn't imply that it is surprising.
I mean I use it, and I'm in my mid-20
- In that case, English is broken. This is too much, we are literally cooked and need a new global lingua franca

Youtube videos: This guy is COOKED! His career is OVER! (nothing is going to happen and everyone will forget in two days).

That's salty

That's because everyone is cooking

And where are they back from? Does everyone have time machines?

I don't like whenever people on Lemmy mention gen z/alpha slang because, it's always a "how you do, fellow kids?" vibe.

Cooked vs cooking

They know you’re allowed to say “fucked” right?

Seruleously, I'm already sick of that word.
