Hey, thanks for the inadvertent larnin'. I wasn't sure what "merde" meant in French anymore and so looked it up. Literal meaning is "shit". So I thought, okay, there's got to be a colloquialism associated. So looked into it and it means "good luck". But that didn't make perfect sense so looked it up some more. Turns out that saying "merde" will actually insult some people. The full phrase is "Je te dis merde". Which led to even more reading and finding out the origin of the phrase in the first place. So cool, much nollige!
