“Come on people. Guess “shoot for the moon” is out now?”

You could probably add in “give it your best shot”.

Some here are old enough to remember the exclamation used in the south, “Shoot.” It had several meanings such as “go ahead and tell us” or as a replacement for “damn” when disgusted about something, etc. Haven’t heard it lately and wonder why not........Perhaps it’s another transgression in the allowable politically correct speech.
