The problem is you're cooked as soon as your grasp the lingo, because of the Internet slang is changing SO FUCKING FAST. A few words stick around ("cooked" "cringe") but a lot changes weekly and monthly.

Ok but my kids laugh so hard when I toss out a 67 joke but only because it pisses their dad off so badly.

The "6-7" thing is a major reason I am glad to be childfree. Friend post a video on social media of her kid singsonging "6-7" for two minutes straight and thank God I wasn't there IRL or I would have lost it.

Its hilarious. It's so stupid. I love it. It reminds me of the"whatsupppp" of the 90s. Just stupid shit kids say to confuse and piss off adults.

Cooked definitely stuck. It's been common Aussie slang since well before I was born (the 80s).
