working cape race 

Used to describe someone who is too preoccupied with the task at hand to notice potential obstacles and hazards.

Comes from the response of Jack Phillips, senior wireless officer on the RMS Titanic, to a message from Cyril Evans, wireless officer for the SS Californian, which was meant to notify him of ice dangers in the waters the Titanic was passing through. Phillips -- who was busy relaying a backlog of messages from the as-yet-intact Titanic's passengers through the wireless center at Cape Race, Newfoundland -- responded to the loud interruption with the phrase, "Shut up; I'm working Cape Race!" The Titanic struck and iceberg and sank

Sue: "Does John not realize he's working himself into a corner?"
James: "No, he's working cape race."

Workaholics 

A Comedy Central show that first aired in early April of 2011 and is absolutely hilarious. It follows three friends living and working together after college. Blake Anderson, Adam DeVine and Anders Holm star in this scripted comedy where they spend their days selling time shares and their nights partying. Even though college ended, the fun hasn't.

Kevin: Dude it's Wednesday, guess what's on tonight. New episode of Workaholics!!
Devin: That show is so funny man, cannot wait.

Working on Laptops 

a phrase that means "Having homosexual relations". Popularized in October 2009 by two airline pilots that over-shot their intended destination to Minneapolis and broke radio communication for almost an hour. They couldn't come up with a valid excuse for what happened and tried to cover up the event (very poorly I might add).

Boss: "What the hell where you two doing in the stock room together!?"

HomoA: "Uh.... we were arguing..."

HomoB: "We were Working on Laptops! Yeah! That's it..."

Boss: "Hmmm... don't know if I'm buying that one you queers"

Oh, I know how it works 

The statement used after being told how something works or functions.

Even if you may or may not know how this something works or functions, use the statement anyways to cause laughter.

"We're going to have a surprise party; where every one will hide and when the birthday girl arrives we will jump out and yell surprise!"

Nearly interrupt the previous statement with:

"---Oh, I know how it works."
