The expression "off the table" is used to mean something is no longer available or will not be considered as a topic. Here's a few more examples of how this expression can be used: Ex: You should apply for the job soon. If you wait too long, it might be off the table. Ex: We will only be talking about the budget in this meeting. All other topics are off the table. Ex: Someone is already bringing a salad tonight so salad is off the table.
