what do these mean?
1.If I say to someone that he doesn't look so well and he replies " ya tell me about it" what does he really mean?

2." you can say it again". Well I don't remember how it was used, but if any one knows about this expression please explain.

Thanks in advance.

Answer

1. It means he already knows that and agrees with you. You don't have to really tell him about it though ;-)
2. It's way of emphatically agreeing.

Answer

"You can say *that* again!" When we use this, we put emphasis on the word 'that.' So it's like this: "You can say THAT again!"
