Get the can't wannamug. A cryptolect, an argot, and/or a set of secretive low-key code word terminologies (also known as thieves' argot, rogues' cant, or peddler's French) used by thieves, beggars, vagabonds, criminals and hustlers in primarily of Great Britain in the early 16th century onwards until falling completely out of use in all language and literature by the late Victorian Era.
Simply put, it was the speakeasy, lowkey language and/or code word in itself, at the time used to avoid tipping off less knowledgeable agents of law enforcement.
The term was likely devised by the self declared "King of the Gypsies of Derbyshire's Devil's Arse", now known Peak Cavern, by either at the time Richard Skelton and/or/both his soon to be successor Cock Lorel (his real name a mystery, lost to time, but his pseudonym meaning rascal leader) and their band of misfits who either preyed upon the rich or all folk of the Shires of Britain at the time.
The term became extremely popular after literature of the 16 and mostly 17th centuries would depict the lives, both fictional and real, of these rogues, both recent and historic at the time, by modernfolk who could read to those who could not, usually at less reputable pubs or "public houses"at the time.
In modern times, it's used primarily by geeks who play tabletop RPGs or those who have a keen interest in histoical literature. Some secretive clever groups of our society today might adopt the code for their own use in secretive deeds.

Get the My Little Sister Can't Be This Cutemug. Idiom
Etymology:
Of Native American origin it describes the inability of a person to successfully walk through tall grass. Before colonization the great plains of North American were covered with large sections of tall grasses. Instead of going around acres of tall grass, people could walk straight through them.
The implication is that a capable adult is both tall enough to see above shoulder height tall grass and wise enough to navigate and form a path through tall grass that is above their head. Children and people that are not intelligent will get lost in the tall grass and need help to get out or even die.
Usually applied to a person, but could apply to a thing.
Similar to: If you can't handle the heat get out of the kitchen, shape up or ship out
1: transitive, present tense
a: Describing a person that cannot handle the situation they are in.
b: Describing a person that is not intelligent enough to figure out something that others easily can.
2: rhetorical question
Implying that the person being asked is not keeping up with the group or not able to handle the task they were given.
