Chase that taxi

An urgent piece of advice telling someone to aggressively pursue a fleeting opportunity before it disappears forever. While it originated as romantic advice to go after a crush, it applies to any high-stakes scenario where a window of time is closing fast, such as applying for a dream job, taking a massive life risk, or seizing a sudden stroke of creative genius.
Person A: "They just announced the deadline for that dream internship is tonight."
Person B: "Well, what are you waiting for? Stop hesitating and chase that taxi!'

A: "Look, this girl is giving hints she likes me, but I don't know what to do."
B: "Chase that taxi bro!"
