DOA
Definition: Hopeless or futile; something that cannot be repaired or
salvaged.
Example: 1) The local football team decided to move to another city, so
our proposal for a new stadium was DOA.
2) The victim was rushed to the emergency room, where doctors pronounced
him DOA.
Etymology: DOA comes from the first letters of the phrase 'dead on
arrival', which is used in hospitals to describe dead people who are
brought to the emergency room. As slang, the term can be used to
describe anything that is no longer possible.
