You keep telling yourself that

A response to a possibly false statement that one gives when the party being responded to is certainly deluding themselves. Roughly, "If you keep saying that, you might actually start to believe it".

"The price of gasoline is going to go down tomorrow," quipped Sue. Joe simply responded, "You keep telling yourself that."

Telling it like it is

An expression. i.e. being very honest with a friend or acquaintance when answering their questions or telling them what you think about a particular situation.

Laura: Why do none of my relationships last more than a month or two?
Brandon: Well, that's because you expect too much from the relationship. You conceptualize the man you think you need to have to be truly in love, therefore, all other guys seem inadequate for their faults compared to what you fantasized in your head.
Laura: "....."
Brandon: Are you offended?
Laura: ...Actually no, I appreciate you telling it like it is.

who you tellin?!

when someone says something that you very obviously already know..emphesis on the "you"! Meant to be sarcasm, but not in an offensive way.

If my girl were to say to me "Johnny Depp is sexy." I'd say "Who You Tellin?!" I know this!
