can you dig it

"Do you understand?" or "Do you comprehend".

The general usage of the term DIG as an indicator of understanding "do you dig" / "dig me" (as in "do you understand") comes from non-English speaking Irish immigrants in the USA speaking Irish to each other.

"An dtuigeann tú?" (pronounced "On digging two") means "Do you understand?".

Also used in a short form "dig it", "dig me" etc.

Used in the 50's by the beatniks, the 60s and 70s saw it enter into the AAVE lexicon, the used of the term was widely popularised in blacksploitation movies such as Shaft, and later movies such as "The Warriors".

Lets not go there, the music sucks and the people are assholes. Way better craic in the old bars, can you dig it?

"You dig it"
"Pretty cool music man, like, look at Stacy... she digs it!"

but can you do this?

A phrase used by the popular YouTuber PewDiePie to covey the superiority of his personalised, £399 chair. This has now become a meme, and a popular theme in his own meme sub-reddit.
PewDiePie also says it can be used to show your intellectual dominance over anyone in an argument simply by leaning back on you’re chair and shouting ‘BUT CAN YOU DO THIS?’

Your less-intellectual friend- The Earth is round, man
You, realising you’re wrong but still wanting to prove your intellectual dominance- BUT CAN YOU DO THIS?
