have had its day; become useless, obsolete, out-of-dateОстап познакомил своих спутников с содержанием телеграммы. - Дело плохо. В телеграмме предлагается задержать зелёную машину, идущую впереди автопробега. Надо сейчас же свернуть куда-нибудь в сторону. Хватит с нас триумфов, пальмовых ветвей и бесплатных обедов на постном масле. Идея себя изжила. (И. Ильф, Е. Петров, Золотой телёнок) — Ostap revealed to his subordinates the contents of the telegram. 'We're in a bad way. The telegram orders the stopping of the green car that is going ahead of the auto race. We must turn off to the side immediately. We've had enough of triumphs, palm leaves and free dinners. This strategy has had its day.'
