Oye, no me andes con hostias y dime directamente si vas a venir o no.Hey, stop messing around and just tell me straight if you're coming or not.me cago en
damn it / for f***'s sake (expression of frustration)expressionvulgarOne of the most characteristic and frequent vulgar exclamations in Castilian Spanish. Literally scatological, it is used as an intensified expression of anger or frustration.

¡Me cago en...! Se me ha vuelto a olvidar el cargador en casa.For f***'s sake...! I've gone and forgotten my charger at home again.
