Why Do People Say 'Bite Me'?

People say 'Bite me!' when they're being playful or annoyed. It's like saying, 'Go ahead and hurt me, I don’t care!' Imagine you’re at a party and someone teases you about your weird hat. You could just smile, but instead you shout, 'Bite me!' That makes it fun and shows you're not afraid of being silly.
