I think "I was cut up" could also mean "I was uncomfortable" or maybe "I wass stuck with..." Ex.: "I'm late 'cause I was cut in the office",but I'm not sure ...Could anyone tell me?

PS:"Cut to the chase" means go to the point of interest (as we would say in spanish ve al grano )

Cut to fit , cut to pattern . These are used in tailoring and clothing. Your carpet can be cut to order . I heard that on a carpet store's commercial.

To "cut off" also means to lose the connection in a phonecall. In the UK and Ireland, that is. And yes, "cut to the chase" also can be said as' "come on, what is the bottom line?" In other words, to stop elaborating on a subject and to "get to the point" of the monologue.

"Cut up" is the answer! Again, at least in the UK and Ireland.
