Playful shorthand for conceding an argument because you just don't feel like having it, and it doesn't really matter anyway.
From a Roz Chast cartoon titled "Wimpy Mom", in which the aforementioned mom reads to her toddler: "Dinosaurs were VERY VERY big." "NOOO! THEY ARE NOT!!" "You're right, they were as small as peas." (What a wimpy, wimpy mom.)
