At 10 he's alllllmost at that age where anything a grown-up relative buys for him is gonna be cringe and not the right brand/style/whatever. You can't go wrong with a voucher so he can get exactly what he wants. Maybe a voucher for a skate shop? You could even take him there and help him get something so it's still an uncle/aunt purchase.

Part of the point (the whole point?) of rhyming slang is that it's opaque and convoluted. That's what makes it fun. It also makes it a bit of a shibboleth - you only understand it if you're part of the culture.

If you're eating with an Australian and they ask you to "pass the dead horse", it means they think you're Aussie enough to know what it means. Or they know that you won't know what it means and they're fucking with you intentionally.

Fun fact: in the rest of the world it's just called "licorice". No black. That red stuff isn't licorice at all.

Fun fact: Lady Gaga chose that name because of that song.

You can tell it's made up because it has "it's said that" in it.
