Bite me isn't a phrase used here...
Did you ever want to say this?

It's a bit offensive but generally to males.

No. Not really. Doesn't seem the brightest come-back. Some idiot might take you at your word.

"Did you ever want to say this?"
If really pushed, I might say, "Go F yourself."
Bite me, ha! No, and I don't say FU. I curse but generally don't curse at people.

Yes it's more thinking than saying!No!
My Mother would say..."Think it, but don't say it".
I just usually stare, at 'them', and they get it!

If I'm angry, "Bite me" just ain't gonna do. It is sort of elementary schoolish. There's another word, we all know what I mean. I thought it a million times, but I recall only one time where I used it repeatedly. These two idiots dumped me out of an ambulance stretcher in a parking lot- I landed on my head-they never strapped me in.
BTW I truly wonder if that word is the only universally , world wide known/spoken word, it seems everybody knows it.

Same here lol
They didn't know it in mainland China at the turn of the century.
......until I got there.
Then.....that's pretty much all I'd hear them say
Did you ever want to say this?
No
Not all that productive
For awhile I learned to say 'enjoy your next 24 hours'
in place of 'have a nice day'
seemed to fluster folks
(rather gratifying)
But
No
I found no reply best

Yes, constantly.
I saw someone with a baseball cap that said "Bite Me" on it, with a picture of a mosquito.

Yeah, that and others. Mah big mouph has a mind of its own........
Had a male friend call me last night and said another male friend (a lawyer) ask him to call me and ask what I thought of him calling- referring to - older women in a weekly spiritual meeting "girls".
One of the "girls" was supposedly offended at this phrase.
I did tell him "who cares" ...just ask them what they want to have him refer to them as. Betting they won't know what to say.
Sometimes I wonder how we got to this place of being so easily offended by most everything - so critical. You certainly can't feel very free if you are in a perpetual state of being offended...think we simply need more humor in our lives. Cultivating the ability to see the ridiculous has an amazing balancing effect. LOL!

Just for the record, @Liberty I don't mind being referred to as "girl" or "the girls", not one bit. I often call my male friends "the boys". Nobody seems to mind. I don't know why someone would be offended by it unless it's delivered in an obviously snarky or condescending way. Go figure.

My stepfather used to say to me "have a nice day" when he didn't like what I said to him.
I love your alternative......it sounds a bit more threatening, like they may not have that many more hours to.....enjoy.
