If you've ever eaten a burger or a steak, and it's undercooked, you say "A little iodine and that thing could walk again!", implying that it's only a minor cut, and the animal could come back to life if iodine (a cut medicine) was applied.
Waiter: Here's your steak, sir.
Customer: *Cuts into the Steak, sees that it is raw.*
Waiter: Is everything OK?
Customer: Actually, no.
Waiter: What's wrong?
Customer: Weeeell, let's just say... A little iodine and that thing could walk again.
Waiter: Oh, no. Terribly sorry, sir.

But you know he isn't sorry. They never are.

Here's the thing

The statement said either during or immediately following someones attempt to make an extremely valid point that makes the person stop talking and listen to your potentially much less important and usually unrelated opinion. The best setup to a conversational punchline. Ever.
S- "I've never told anyone this before C, but I think I have an authority fettish because of my corrupted relationships to male figureheads in my childhood."
C- "Here's the thing -I'm hungry. Buy me a McDouble."


S- "...So then the condom broke and-"
C- " Here's the thing -I don't have the funds or the reputation to be a godfather to some bastards bastard child. Buy me a McDouble."

the little things

Something you enjoyed as a kid, and then, when growing up, thought that it wasn't worth that much. But once you get old, you realize that the happiest days of your life were the childhood days, and the things you did as a kid were the best. Otherwise, it means you have to enjoy the little things in life, instead of waiting for the big things, as there may be none.
