The second mouse gets the cheese. 

The response you say to someone who chastises you for not being early or on time. The first mouse gets killed in the trap leaving the cheese for the second mouse.

You are late getting to the box office to buy tickets for a concert and the guy who has been waiting in line for hours tells you, "Dude, the early bird gets the worm!" You respond by saying, "Yeah, but the second mouse gets the cheese."

Abusing The Cheese 

A nerd slang from the ninties, commonly referred to in video gaming, which is used to describe a move of uber pwnage used in rapid succession to defeat the opponent. Some video games (Rage) will sometimes show a symbol involving a piece of cheese with a cancellation symbol above it to indicate that a player is rapidly using the same move over and over and will drain their health total to even the balance of pwnage they have caused.

WTF Dalsim! Stop side sweeping me, you're abusing the cheese!

Hail to the Cheese 

A somewhat childish double entendre reference to the fact that the 45th POTUS is both the color of Cheetos and is a fart head (as in “cut the cheese”).

The military band struck up a sad version of Hail to the Cheese as the Trumpster entered the ballroom!
