How to use "Worn-out" in context?
We all know what it feels like to be worn out. We've been through the rigors of the day, and our muscles are desperately trying to catch up. We slump gratefully into the nearest seat, pulling our legs up to our chest, and accept whatever peace and relaxation is offered.
In the grand scheme of things, though, we're really only worn out from the day's events. Our muscles may feel tired, but they only account for a fraction of our overall wear and tear.
