"Quit all those shenanigans" = "Quit fooling around"
Shenanigans is just a lot of stuff that's going on that's ridiculous or silly and makes no sense.

Shenanagins or the "goings on" according to the Northern Irish is describing adult behaviour, means there was a lot of adults games going on.
eg. the shenanagins at that party would've made your hair curl.

Shenanigans is a colloquial irish expression for tomfoolery or generally getting up to mischief. I can't think of a word in the queen's english to correspond.

Shenanigans are behind the scenes activities that are not quite kosher. Shenanigans are almost like a game, except there are no rules, but they try to upset the establishment.
