Blow your head off

Blow your head off. See if I care.

Hi,

I came into the above when watching the cartoon "Pantry Panic." It's freezing cold outside, and the wind is howling, yet Woody inside his warm and cozy house says the above. What does "blow your head off" mean? Thanks.

Is he takingn to the wind? If so, he's sayng "Blow as much as you want."

Scream your head off -- scream loudly, a lot.

Blow your head off -- okay, wind, blow a lot, as much as you can - it won't matter.

Hi

I think it is one of a new range of US idioms that completes the phrase..

- If you're going to be so stupid then..

The popular one seems to be..

- Knock yourself out
