We covered this awhile ago. You can get details if you do a forum search,
but it basically means: don't get me angry/frustrated. Literally it means
don't make me flare my nostrils

Thanks, all.

I've heard of «hincharse las narices» as «to get fed up» or «to be unable to tolerate any longer», so that was the source of my question. This would then be the «hincharle a alguien las narices» form of that idiom, yes?
