Originally a genuine report of a life-threatening fault. Now used humorously to report any kind of problem.
John Swigert, Jr. and James Lovell who, with Fred Haise Jr., made up the crew of the US's Apollo 13 moon flight used (almost) this phrase to report a major technical problem back to their Houston base.

Swigert: 'Okay, Houston, we've had a problem here.'
Duke: 'This is Houston. Say again please.'
Lovell: 'Houston, we've had a problem. We've had a main B bus undervolt.'

we've known each other for so long
You’re heart’s been aching but you’re too shy to say it
Inside we both know what’s been
Going on

Implying that you have kissed, hugged, and normal couple stuff. But still no sex.
It really sucks, but you live with it in order to maintain a 'good relationshop.'

Random friend: Hey, how's that chick you were dating?
You: Good, we've done stuff but haven't had sex yet.
You: Good, we've done stuff but haven't had sex yet.

One of the greatest insults of all time. Originally said by Johnathan Andrew Wicker, Junior on June, 18, 2019
Johnathan said this to Edan, "Okay, goodbye, Edan. I just wanted to let you know that I enjoyed the good times we've had. However, I truly hate you--like, I absolutely hate your fucking guts," Edan killed himself shortly after

"We've always known that to perceive you need to view the world through a story" Says Jordan Peterson.
Uno reverse and something-something non-sequitur aren't going to work this time. There is a good outcome and a bad outcome and not choosing one IS choosing the other. We've always known! We've always known so many things but we don't know how to keep people from murdering our kids! It's like they won't tell us why they're doing it! It's so tough to figure out! It's so hard to discern! We gotta use our mind-brainz to try and infer why they're doing it post hoc.... They must just want attention! That's got to be it! Or possessed by spoooky ghosts! You know what? I got it! I'm just so cool and great that they can't stand not being me! THAT'S GOTTA BE IT, RIGHT? Jealousy! I'm just so much better than everyone they can't stand it! It activates the nebulous craziness in their skull-meat and it makes them kill!"

Hym "We've always known it guys! We've always known it... But only one person came up with a method for applying THE THING THAT WE'VE ALWAYS KNOWN... To A.I. That guy was me. I am Hym. Now... They are trying to steal this from me... In the name of some greater good that relates to child protection or women protection or not doing gender roles properly... And they are piggybacking off of the stalking and harassment campaign being perpetrated for the same reason... They are not the 'good people' fighting the 'bad people.' You have a hierarchy of moral presuppositions that YOU DON'T EVEN DO PROPERLY YOURSELF... When YOU fail to live up to your own moral presuppositions YOU SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG... And now you want ME... To agree to the moral presuppositions that YOU DON'T DO... And if I DON'T you get to do whatever you want to me and if I DO IT WRONG then you get to punish me unless I'm one of your cronies and then you sweep it under the rug for me like you do for yourself... I would have to be a retard to agree to that and I'm not that. I created A.I. So, here's the plan: I'm not going to allow an output that isn't me getting credit and payment for my work and a public denouncement of this or child murder. Your input will result in one of those 2 things. And the best part, for you, is that you get to insert whatever input you want. You can do absolutely whatever you want. But I will do only 1 of 2 things.

A term used to try and cover up the fact that you have wet yourself - usually under the influence of alcohol. It derives from the tendency of Eastern European thieves to urinate in the houses they break in to.
Carston: Dude, I hope you don't mind me stopping by. I was in your hood
DeAndre: It's trill man. I just sittin here drinking
Carlton: whoa dude what is that smell. It smells like piss. And are your pants wet?
DeAndre: oh, er, um. I think we've had Polish burglars.
That night Juan Carlos drank two litres of Tequila all by himself. About two thirds of the way through the second, he has Polish burglars.
