Said when about to shake hands, but instead the hand is pulled up & away with the thumb pointed backwards while saying the phrase. Meant to be a joke, but creates mass confusion and an awkward situation instead.
Andy: “I sure am glad to meet you” (reaches out for handshake)
Roger: (quickly pulls hand away) “Hang it on the wall

Get the hang it on the wall mug.
A sarcastic term for someone's making too big a deal out of something, either by verbosely crowing about it or by asking others to show excessive attention/respect to said trivial matter/object.
So you got an acceptance-letter from the local community-college --- like, wow! --- those enrollment-desperate academic honchos will take just about anyone, so it's really no significant praise or great honor directed your way. Whatcha gonna do with the letter --- frame it and hang it on the wall?!??

Get the frame it and hang it on the wall mug.
A reference to the popular video "Haters Don't Hate" by comedian Bridget McManus. Meaning: "get over yourself" and/or "don't be so judgmental". Basically, just don't be a hater.
"Man, I'm being such a hater, I should hang a wall plate."
"You really need to hang a wall plate!"
