This phrase has been around forever, and is still in wide use. I guy on a “home” show today said that those cabinets were going to support a beam, “if you believe it”. Now I feel responsible for keeping that beam in place by virtue of faith alone. And I’m not even a christian! :dubious:
I know that he wasn’t actually speaking to me, but still. What a burden.

I’m not really drunk, If You Believe It!
If he was polite, he would have said “Believe it or Not” to give you the option of accepting whatever objective information is being presented into your own worldview. I wouldn’t even let a stranger into my pants uninvited, why would I let someone screw with my brain through facts?
I believe you’re enjoying the best single malt scotch in the world.
You’re welcome. 
Would that be Talisker?
Laphroaig, if you believe it.
Damn, pool, you’re getting some awfully nice whiskey here, and for free.
If you believe it.
Bottoms up!
Oops, we just don’t do that. Not with this quality stuff.
I hope to try Laphroaig some day. Can’t be had here, if you believe it. Not sure if I tried that in Cambodia or not, but I think I did. The night was a bit fuzzy at that point.
Oh, do, if you ever get a chance. Salty and Peaty, like licking Scotland. 
Who would name their daughter ‘Scotland’?
