A retort used whenever someone gives advice and preaches about doing something despite never having do it themselves.
Rich kid: Stop complaining about the rich. Work hard, get rich. My dad was just an immigrant from a poor country, and through hard work, he became rich. If he can do it, so can you.
Normal person: Easy for you to say. You never had to work a damn day in your life. I'd like to see you try to get rich from scratch without your daddy's help, it'd blow up in your face.

literally speaking it is just another way of saying a very commonly and aptly used phrase "NO SHIT". it is when stating the blatant obvious and saying it as if it was just thought of on the spot. It is used to show distaste in a rather sarcastic and underhanded way and if said properly can be funny to no ends.

An expression which appears in rage comics as a cartoonized version of Nicolas Cage. The phrase is a response to anything obvious and functions the same as "No shit, Sherlock" and "thank you captain obvious".
Some guy: I'll tell you a big fact.
Me: And... what is it?
That very guy: Stars don't blink! It's the atmosphere that makes stars look like if they blink!
Me: You don't say?
