It means "Are you finished?" or "Is it time?"
Comes from a 1970's Lipton instant soup commercial, notable on several levels. First off, it was a slam against Campbell's which was merely condensed. Lipton did Campbell's one better and removed itself even further from the real stuff, by removing ALL the water and powdering the soup. Only when re-hydrated with boiling water, was it again soup.
So kid's in commercials would ask, "Is it soup yet?"
AND BACK THEN, THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A GOOD THING!!
The fact that it was even more prefab than Campbell's was a selling point!

a high official in the Ministry of Love in "1984." He tortured the protagonist, Winston Smith, into submission to the totalitarian "Party." O'Brien was played in the film by Richard Burton; it was Burton's last role.
Winston was struck, as he had been struck before, by the tiredness of O'Brien's face. - George Orwell, "1984"

a white suprecemacist leader that George Costanza impersonated to get a free ride in a limo. George's lie nearly cost him his life, as he faced being torn limb-from-limb by an angry mob, or being shot by angry neo-Nazi's.
We're not sure how he got out of this dilemma, as the show ended with him still in grave danger, but he seemed okay in the next episode.

Archeologist 1: Whoo-hoo! I just located a motherlode of info on a civilization four thousand years old.
Archeologist 2: Wait! You can't open it. It says, "Do not open till 8113." Too bad.
Archeologist 1: Darn.

a now obsolete adjective popular as a business buzzword among yuppies in the early eighties. It described a worker who was very smart and very fast-paced.
This meaning of "crack" was forced out by the drug, crack, in the mid-eighties. Sort of like you can't say "gay" to mean "happy" anymore.

That was a good move to hire him; he's crack.
