Goose is cooked
Hi
Would you say that this expression is reasonably common among native speakers? Is it low-register?
If I am caught, my goose is cooked. (= I am in trouble)
Thanks,
Tom

When your goose is cooked, you are beyond being in trouble. Your downfall is a foregone conclusion. I believe it is a well-known informal expression.
