get bent
Go away, jerk
Get bent is a dismissive insult telling someone to go away or stop bothering you—roughly equivalent to "go to hell" or "fuck off." The phrase implies the person should go do something unpleasant to themselves: I asked for an extension and he told me to get bent.
It's rude but not as harsh as stronger alternatives.
