How does one interpret the term "Get a Life" or "You need a Life"?

In recent days, the term "Go Get a Life" or "You need a Life" are often used in conversations and it is intended to mock a person. How does one interpret this term??? I think this term is totally Idiotic. One may feel that LIFE is getting recognized or making a mark in this world while another may consider LIFE to be something to enjoy to the fullest without breaking a sweat. If the former tells the later to go get a life or vice-versa, won't it be stupid, because he or she already has one.

Well, if you take this statement literally, you and the one who thinks you meant what you said literally, both of you should go get a life. And I'm not saying that literally. =P It only means to do something better to improve the life you have. Instead of drifting away adn dying, do something that would develop yourself as a person. =) Don't always take things literally.

Somehow I am not surprised with this response 'coz when i started this discussion I knew some were going to answer with "u need a life" or "get a life". Anyway,thank you.
