animals: throught 6 billion years this big fat bear has evolved to be green so he can hide in the bushes

bugs: last week there was one red bug, now there is a round bug that unravels like a bakugan and another one that has evolved a meth lab inside of her torax complete with a little jesse pinkman (really tiny voice: bitch!)

Ok so somebody on here said that “cooked” in the context of, “I have a test, I’m so cooked.” Is AAVE, but I was Under the impression that it derived from the expression “[pronoun] Goose is cooked,” as in, “I have to run 3 miles, my goose is cooked.” And that phrase originated sometime in like the 1500s I think in Europe (Czechoslovakia region I think, but I’m not an expert on European Geopolitics), anyways, does anyone know which one it is?

where is the etemolyblr when I need her? (Female pronouns for the rhyme, not the assumption that all people who know anything about the origins of words are women)
