What does "Go Figure!" mean?
From what I understand that there are two different meanings. 1. Used sarcastically for something obvious. (Kind of like saying no sh\*t bruh). Example: Person A: The sky is blue. Person B: Go figure! 2. Something that's hard to understand. Example: Despite the dish not having any flavor, it still tasted good. Am I right or am I missing something? Which one is more used? TIA!
Son of a *beeeep*! Hey newbies, don't you tell me you knew this already, because I didn't :D Pardon for the language lol ! (found this at grammarly)

“Open/close the visor.” “Pull down/fold back the visor”. Which one is correct? How do people usually say it? Thanks.

What does “cooked” mean?
Hello everyone! Lately I often hear this word and I don’t know what does it mean. For example I watched caseoh and he said “we are cooked him” and I don’t know what does it mean. English isn’t my first language so can you explain the meaning of this phrase and word?
5 Things I learned about English from 2 weeks on Reddit
Hey everyone! 👋 I’ve been using Reddit for the past two weeks to improve my English, and here’s what I’ve discovered: 1. Context Beats Grammar Rules✍️ Native speakers don’t always stick to perfect grammar - what matters is how natural it sounds. 2. Slang Is Everywhere 🗣️ Phrases like “spill the tea” ☕ or “hot take” 🔥 seemed confusing at first, but context helped me figure them out. 3. Tone Changes Everything 🤔😅 The same sentence can feel friendly or sarcastic depending on punctuation, emojis, or subreddit vibe. 4. Mistakes Are Okay ✅ Even when my grammar wasn’t perfect, people were kind and focused on understanding me. 5. It’s Like Language Immersion🌍 Reddit exposes you to real, everyday English that’s impossible to learn from a textbook. Anyone else using Reddit to practice English? Share your experience! 😊

From Cambridge dictionary. The latter example doesn’t make sense to me
To me the simple statement “none” sounds very unambiguous, contrary to the definition of “equivocally” above. I feel like my english got pretty decent in the last couple of years and it’s been a while since I got so confused by a dictionary definition. The sky is blue, the sea is wet, no patients fully recovered. How does the latter have two opposing meanings?
