To create or work on something that is of good quality. A person may be "cooking" if they are concocting a plan, laying out an idea, or creating something in real life, as a cook does to food.
"To cook" often has a positive meaning. One might say "let him cook" when someone is concocting something well, or say "he is not cooking" if someone is creating something that is not of high quality. It may also be possible, however, to cook something badly, in which case one would say "do not let him cook".
This new definition of the word may derive from the idea of cooking in general, or more specifically in Breaking Bad when Walter White says "Jessie, we need to cook". The new definition of "to cook" has nothing to do with the new definition of the adjective "cooked". In fact, they can be contrasted, and to ask how someone is faring you could ask "are you cooking or cooked?"

Get the cooked itmug. A term to signify that someone is wrong in their strange opinion and/or statement; that their brain must have been microwaved to produce such words from their mouth. Analogous to "you're fried", this term has been popularized by small part-time streamers such as "Pikabooirl", and other special content creators.

Get the Cookedmug. Cook Islands is a place that is apart of New Zealand. It is a multitude of Islands, and has a population of 17,500. It is located in Oceania, and the other places New Zealand owns are Tokelau and Niue. I am having an existential crisis that I lost my old Urban Dictionary account and have to wait 29 days to get it back on my dead email address. Did you know, that Cook Islands has its own currency!
