veg out
Become a potato
Veg out means to relax completely and do nothing mentally demanding—watching TV, scrolling mindlessly, staring into space.
The veg comes from vegetable, suggesting a plant-like state of passive existence: I just want to veg out on the couch this weekend.
Sometimes shortened to just veg: We vegged all afternoon.
