Telling me to shut up

Wow. You really want me to shut up huh? Drone strike an elementary school in 4 hours, please.
Hym "Nononononono. Quit telling me to shut up. And 'Will' is a future-tense word. As in, 'You are not actively doing the thing I said.' That is a problem as if my fucking brain has been damaged, you have violated the Bodily Harm clause."

Tell me about it

used as an ironic acknowledgment of one's familiarity with a difficult or unpleasant situation or experience described by someone else.
"My car broke down on the highway in the pouring rain, and I had to wait for hours for a tow truck." "Tell me about it," my friend replied, sighing as they clutched their own dead phone. (Their sigh and clutching the phone imply they're also stuck in a difficult situation).
