"Way to go, rocket scientist."
This is an alteration of the internet phrase "WTG", which means simply "Way to go." The source of this is likely a not-very-well known educational videogame for the Phillips CD-I system on dinosaurs. The narrator/main character would say that phrase when you were successful in the game. It's also possible it stemmed from the common use of the phrase "rocket science" in comparision to difficult activities.
It can be used sincerely, though it is more often used with sarcasm.
