The expression "out straight" originated in the 19th century and is believed to stem from the phrase "out straightened," which referred to being in a state of being overwhelmed or burdened with tasks. It typically describes a situation where someone is extremely busy or has too many responsibilities. The phrase has evolved to convey a sense of urgency and the feeling of being stretched thin due to various commitments.
