马尾穿豆腐--提不起。
字面意,豆腐很软,用很细的马尾不能提起来,会把豆腐切碎。所以是“提不起”。
其实的意思是要表达某人某话题”无法评论“,“不值一提”

So interesting!!
你知道歇后语?It's a kind of expression. It has two parts. The first part likes a puzzle and the second part will be the answer.
For instance, your sentence will be first part.
用马尾(马尾巴的毛,)去提、穿豆腐。
the second part, 第二部分(the answer part) :提不起来
用马毛去提豆腐,当然提不起来了。 要么马尾太细,马尾断了,要么豆腐碎了。
