What does ni me hables mean?

ExpressionColoquial

don't even start me

It looks like a request for silence and does precisely the opposite: it is an invitation to be asked. Somebody who says ni me hables is desperate to tell you, and the listener knows it. Which is why the reply is nearly always "why, what happened?".

—¿Qué tal el viaje? —Uf, ni me hables.
The story is about to arrive, at length.
