What does estar hasta el moño mean?

ExpressionColoquial

to be fed up to the back teeth

Full to the brim — as far up as the bun in your hair. It is the decent member of a whole family of expressions saying the same thing at different strengths: estar hasta las narices is equally acceptable, and estar hasta los cojones is the vulgar one. El moño carries nothing offensive and can be said anywhere.

Estoy hasta el moño de que me llamen a estas horas.
Patience gone, and the complaint fully formed.
