A retort against someone who takes a fun conversation way too seriously, to the point their very presence is a buzzkill.
Normal guy: I expected nothing and I still feel let down, lol. Couldn't have been any worse, right?!

Buzzkill: That you were let down means you had some expectations. It's impossible otherwise.

Normal guy: I bet you're fun at parties.

Wishing to make a wager with someone. Sometimes, being overused and rather useless in its meaning.
This saying is often spoken by a some gamers on Grand Theft Auto 5 Online.
Hey, how's the whether today?
How much you wanna bet?

Say, what's for lunch?
How much you wanna bet?

Do don't even have any money.

A retort signifying one of two scenarios based on context and speaker:

(1) A dejected loser who initially engaged in debate has ventured out of their depth, and now attempts to break for the intellectual fire-escape by using a phrase he himself has been the recipient of previously. This dejected loser will return to his parents' basement and continue to research the topic at issue in an attempt to prepare for the imminent rematch for which no one requested.

(2) A virgin, loser has attempted to engage a total Chad, who has not one solitary fuck to give, because this Chad is concerned with the important things in life like: partying, recreational drug abuse, and disrespecting women. The Chad uses the ironic retort, and with good authority. This Chad is the fiesta and everyone knows it. The dejected loser will return to his parents' basement and cry.
Virgin Loser:" . . . and that is why the Flash would kill the Hulk everytime they fought. Honestly, it's embarrassing you even thought he stood a chance."

Defeated Virgin Loser: *visibly sweating and mentally panicking* "Pssshh. Yeah. Pssshhh. Right. W-w-well, I bet. . . I bet you're fun at parties!"

Virgin Loser: "Chad why do you like Skrillex. He's not even a real musician, like Megadeath or Anthrax. I mean, can Skrillex even play guitar, much less shred like James Hetfield/Buckethead/Steve Vai/..."

Chad: *never breaking eye contact with the captain of the cheer team* "I bet you're fun at parties."
