"The origin of the expression go pound sand is from a longer expression, not to know (have enough sense to) pound sand down a rathole. Filling rat holes with sand is menial work, and telling someone to pound sand down a hole is like telling them to go fly a kite. The expression dates to at least 1912 and is common in the midwestern United States."

To order someone to go away or "get lost." This is a widely used term that has no vulgar connotations.
One friend told another to pound sand when he questioned the veracity of the Old English Dictionary.

(Me destroying a kid in Madden)
Kid: *starts crying*
Me: Oh boo hoo! Let me play the world’s smallest violin for you! Pound sand, cry to your mommy and tell her that I beat you. Why don’t you just pound sand and rage quit, you’re just wasting my time.
