break a leg!

In Shakespearean times, the poor people (groundlings) were known to be lowkey stupid, and drool in awe when excited. Because the groundlings were placed right in front of the stage and so damn slobbery, the drool would drip onto the stage. So if the actor was slaying, the groundlings would drool, resulting in the actor's inevitable slip and bone fracture.

They are loving your performance so much! Hopefully they'll drool enough that you break a leg!

Canadian Break and Enter

When someone goes on vacation and asks you to check in on their house while they're away. Ex: water plants, feed pets, shovel the driveway.

"We're going away for a week. Can you do a Canadian break and enter and feed our dog?". It's based on the stereotype that Canadians are so polite that when the break into a house they do nice things for the owner instead of stealing items.
