that's the way the cookie crumbles

Bruce Almighty, said by Bruce Campbell in an effort to make a catchphrase similar to "And Thats the way it was"

Also a pun in that film, as the news story was about a giant cookie,

It means:

Thats the way it happened

....*news story*..

and thats the way the cookie crumbled
