Don't shit where you eat

This expression refers to doing anything that would jeopardize something important or essential to you. A common example of shitting where one eats is engaging in a romantic affair with a co-worker, but lying to your roommate or stealing from friends also fits this expression.

Don Quixote

Someone who is idealistic, and believes in justice, and is on a quest to save the world or someone, no matter how absurd the reality of accomplishing it is.

Eric was a Don Quixote when he thought he could save Gina from drugs. She's been hooked on crack for over a decade, and still hangs around dopeboys. He is out of his head on a lost cause.

Don't mind if I do

I phrase/saying to say while taking something that should have been, but wasn't, offered to you. Usually goes along with a deliberately rude gesture, like snatching something off a table.

At the Christmas Party, important guests were given a free tree ornament. Someone who was not supposed to get one walks up to their table and says abruptly "Don't mind if I do" and takes one of the ornaments for themselves.
