Cope Cage 

Shoddily welded cages of sheet metal used by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation during their illegal invasion of Ukraine to protect their modern multi-million dollar armored vehicles against $200K Javelin missiles, despite the obvious fact that they'd be as effective as a wet tissue against a sharpened pencil.
"Hey Ivan, I sure hope these Cope Cages will protect us as we invade this innocent country."
"I don't see why not Vlad, it is not like we used anything but the lowest grade steel and spot welded them together!"

Cope Cage 

A largely ineffective slat armor design mounted on several models of Russian tanks during the Russo-Ukranian War. The armor was supposed to prevent top-attack ATGMs, but did effectively nothing against them, leading to the subreddit r/NonCredibleDefence nicknaming them Cope Cages.
Ahh man, Vlad just got destroyed by a Javelin, his cope cage didn't work!

Cope Cage 

A flimsy metal grill welded to the top of an overrated Russian tank that will hopefully deter anti-tank missiles
The cope cage did nothing to save the Russian T-90 from destruction by Ukrainian Javelin.

Cope Cage 

Cage usually spotted on Russian vehicles marked with "Z". Cope Cages are used for absolutely no purpose other than making the vehicle camouflaged as a greenhouse, as it usually looks like a miniature greenhouse.

funiosity 

The art of being peculiar, but in an amusing fashion.
"Wow, look at that dog running on three legs"
- "Yeah, that sure is a funiosity"

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.
1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.
