Wow. One I haven't heard.

I used to work for a guy who used the phrase often. What it meant was "You brought up a good point that really should be addressed, but it's politically controversial or otherwise something I don't want to deal with. So I'd like to ignore you or chastise you but instead I'll utter a platitude that hopefully will satisfy you. Bring it up again and I'll have your hide."

My experience is you NEVER get back to it. It is a management phrase that translates to "don't bother me with details that could disrupt my fantasy world story I am telling you"
