Context: Diana talking to Michelle

Diana: He visto a Ricardo con Consuelo

Michelle: ¿A Ricardo?

Diana: Si, paseaban cerca del centro comercial.

Michelle: ¿A qué hora?.

Diana: Sobre las ocho o por ahí.

Michelle: Anda. No me vengas con esas.

¿Qué ha querido decir Michelle con eso?.

Only for Spanish learners. I forgot to say it.

Anda. No me vengas con esas.

Maybe that could be like the English phrase "Don't give me that.." Meaning not only do you not want to know but you don't think it's true anyway.

Ok, Michelle doesn't think the story is true. We also use "no me vengas con esas" to say that something is a lie. - nila45, Jul 14, 2011

Michelle doesn´t believe it.

"No me digas esas tonterías / esos chismes."

"Don´t be telling me that foolishness / that gossip."

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr, alright, my queen. Strip me of my points and lead me to the dunce corner, but this offer is good for today only. However in the defense of your humble servant, Nila didn´t say for whom this question was intended :- ( - 005faa61, Jul 14, 2011

I always try that my sentences don't appear on the Internet or in the dictionary. For that reason, I have to wait more time to put them in the forum. - nila45, Jul 15, 2011

I think she is trying to say something like "Leave. Don't come to me with that kind of gossip." I have heard and used something similar "No me vengas con esos chismes."

Yes, it is obvious that: 1. this is considered to be a gossip. 2. she doesn't want to hear that. Any of the answers could be correct. But Michelle is trying to insinuate somethng about Diana's information.

What is it?
