English term or phrase: piss on you (в контексте)

“Your contact with the victim gives you a window on the affair no one else has.”

“That’s why I wanted him here today,” said Rodriguez in his I’m in charge here style.

A short hack of a laugh came out of Hardwick’s throat, followed by a whisper that just reached Gurney’s ear: “He hated the idea until Kline liked it.”

Rodriguez went on, “I have him scheduled to give us his statement next and answer whatever questions it raises -- which could be quite a few. To avoid interruptions, let’s take five minutes now for a restroom break.”

“Piss on you, Gurney,” said the disembodied whisper, lost amid the sounds of chairs being pushed back from the table.

как бы мне сохранить каламбур? побрейнстормьте со мной, пожалуйста!

или "не обосрись". если привязка просматривается только к отправлению естественных нужд ('restroom break') в целом, а не именно к мочеиспусканию

Игорь, при всем уважении, это никогда не сперма, а все-таки моча.

I agree, I don't know why he would say that, unless it's one of those man-to-man insults that are not really insults. Or, it occurred to me perhaps the author or typesetter meant to write "Piss on you Rodriguez" and wrote Gurney by mistake.

the context suggests that the "Piss on you" comment was made by Gurney's friend (his previous comment also came in a whisper, which proves that it is him again). there is no reason why he would tell his friend to piss off, neither does such a comment make sense in the overall context given. it could be, though, that Hardwick suggests that the bathroom break is Rodriguez's way of saying "piss on you"

I don't mean to be a bad sport, but I think the meaning here is simply "bug off/piss off/screw you/drop dead" and no play on words is intended. When people say piss off, they don't stop and think about urine necessarily, just as when someone says Hren s nej, nobody is thinking about horseradishes :-)

Действительно удачный перевод. А что до вашего желания делать конфетки, то я к нему отношусь со всем уважением.

Да, это мне в голову не пришло. Автор глубоко мыслит.

кажется, неплохой вариант — "не ссы, Гурни", — это не буквально, но каламбур сохраняется

дело в том, что шёпот-то принадлежит его другу, и он именно что в шутливой форме каламбурит после предложения родригеза сделать перерыв на туалет

to boostrer: это одноразовый детектив, но не макулатурного качества, нет. а даже если бы и так — я, простите, люблю из говна конфетку делать.

to Igor: нет, я думаю, каламбур в том, что родригез предлагает всем сходить в туалет, чтобы дальше не отвлекаться, и тут хардвик выдаёт вот это

звучит почти так же. как я понял, каламбур в этом.

Чтоб ты обоссался. Не совсем точно, но смысл передает. Правда, я бы вообще над каламбуром не страдал: насколько я могу судить по отрывку, это литература макулатурного качества.

Explanation:
I don't think it's meant to be a play on words. Piss off is just not as rude as F-- off and that's why it was chosen (imho).
