To "dish" is short for "dish it out," which comes from the saying "you can dish it out but you can't take it." This is a sarcastic thing to say to someone who is laughing and making fun of other people, but who gets mad and pouts when someone makes fun of them back.

"Dish it" would mean to talk trash, spread gossip, make fun, or generally talk bad about people.
