Well, you have Arucard's description above, where you use it as a vulgar challenge or to mean "I don't care about what you think, you can just blow me".
It can also be used as an expression of surprise, a shortened version of "Well, blow me down!" (meaning, you are so surprised that a puff of air could knock you over.)
May I ask where you are getting these phrases from? It sounds as if you are reading them from a "book of idioms/slang", instead of finding them in real English usage.
