It's pretty clear what the speaker is trying to convey: "I agree."
I agree with most of the other definitions, which provide details on the subtle context/audience-dependent connotations. I agree that phrase is annoying, used by speakers who use other annoying phrases like "my bad."
I would like to add to what has been said by providing side-by-side analogs; that is, alternative, equivalent but more acceptable expressions.

Inspired by Matt Damon's line in the movie The Martian where he has to "science to shit out of it" to survive. Technically and more accurately he MacGyvered the fuck out of it.
When you have fixed something without the right parts or equipment be proud to say "I macgyvered the fuck out of it!"
another way of telling someone : " please don't reject my ideas, I think i know what I am doing".
