funny ,generally "make my day" is associated with the desire to have an excuse to kill as in Sudden Impact. "Harry's statement in the movie implies a number of meanings, any one or more of which can be implied in common usage of this phrase: That the robber's "threat" does not scare Harry, that the robber's action would be exactly the excuse Harry needs to retaliate, that whatever harm the man causes to the waitress would not compare to the harm Harry causes to him, that Harry would enjoy the revenge, that Harry simply wants to shoot the robber to make himself feel better, or that the robber's life is worth no more than a daily thrill."
