What does that mean: "Knock yourself out"? Give me an example, please.
I saw this in comedy.

It means "I don't mind you doing whatever you said you want to do," or as Caroline said "Help yourself."
An example would be:
1) Could I watch TV while you finish your chores?
2) Knock yourself out.

It means "help yourself". I also heard "fill yours boots" which I love.

Note that this phrase is rather informal. I actually think it's a little bit rude, as if the person saying it thinks what you want to do is stupid, but he really doesn't care.
