shot out

Launched with force

Shot out describes something damaged or worn to the point of uselessness, typically from overuse or abuse.

A car with a shot out transmission needs major repairs.

The phrase often applies to people who are exhausted or burnt out: After three double shifts, I'm completely shot out.

In some contexts, it describes neighborhoods or areas marked by decay and neglect.
