I only know it as a general French expression equivalent to saying “Enough!”, “No more!”, “I draw the line here!”, “I’m making my stand here!”, “I’ve had enough of you!”. You get the idea. I used to hear it on rare occasions from French-speaking people in moments of extreme frustration and their expression was limited to “montjoie” without the Saint Denis.
