Had It Coming

When a person gets what they deserve, their comeuppance or karma, generally because they've acted selfishly and with total disrespect for the people around them.

When this happens very few people will feel sorry for them, even if they pretend to just to keep up appearances.
Jennifer may have lost a lot of money from the deal, but to be honest she had it coming. She's been hustling all over town for years.

Everything's Coming Up Milhouse!

A celebratory phrase used following one, or a series of, positive, though generally insignificant event(s).

Its origin can be attributed to Milhouse, a character of television show The Simpsons, who coined the phrase in jubilation after realising the success of his flood pants to keep his cuffs bone dry.
"I left work 10 minutes early today, and I found $2 in the passenger seat of my car! Everything's coming up Milhouse!"

Winter is coming

A phrase used to warn that hard times are coming, usually after a period when it seems as though everything is going well.

May be used as a retort to excessive bragging.
"Look at me I just bought a Benz, my stocks are up, my girlfriend's hot, I got the promotion, and you got nothing."

"Yeah well.... Winter is coming, my friend..."

I'm coming, Elizabeth!

The most well-known catchphrase on SANFORD & SON. Whenever Fred Sanford heard something particularly distressing, he always staggered around clutching his chest and shouted to his deceased wife, "This is the big one! I'm comin' Elizabeth!" This particularly applies to whenever you hear some really awful, distressing news, bad enough to make you think you were having a heart attack.
YOUR BOSS: I'm afraid I have some bad news: you won't be getting your bonus, I need you to work overtime next week, and your car's just been impounded.
YOU: Oh, my God! This is the big one! I'm coming, Elizabeth!
