I'm telling you, blah blah blah
When people are chatting, they say this sentence as titled here and there. I do not think it has any actual meaning, just causing attension or something like that, do you think so?

Hi Yankee, my question is about the first half--I'm telling you. I am sorry for this confusion.

"I'm telling you" -- you use this to be emphatic, or to be a counter-arguement to something else that was just said.
A: So Dad bought a yellow pick-up truck
B: No, Dad bought a green Prius.
A: No, he just got a yellow pick-up truck.
B: I'm telling you, either he just got two new vehicles, or you're crazy, because he picked me up at the airport, thrilled to show off his new car
