Morphology
The imperative insult meaning (‘go away’/‘screw you’) is idiomatic and cannot be predicted from 'get' (become/obtain) + 'stuffed' (full from eating); the literal compositional reading (‘become full’) is unrelated to the dismissive sense. A B1 learner who knows the constituent words would likely interpret the literal sense and not infer the rude dismissive meaning, so the expression is language-specific and opaque.
Etymology
Get stuffed may come from the old insult 'go and be stuffed' — imagine being stuffed like a toy and put away, a blunt image of being pushed aside. That's why the phrase is a rude way to say 'go away' or 'no'.
