The phrase "short shrift" originates from the 16th century, referring to a brief or insufficient confession given to a condemned person before execution. In this context, "shrift" means confession or absolution, and "short" implies that the time allowed for it was minimal. Over time, the term evolved to describe any situation where someone receives little or no consideration or attention.
