LOL, ****in americans. We teach em how to speak English, and they go and change it all around. Aussies are the same. English, language of the free, doesn't mean you're free to change it. :P

It was pretty easy to figure it out from the context. Even not native English-speakers picked it up, I'm surprised how many natives didn't.

Be sure to keep your head down, don't look 'em in the eye

okay, why are they putting sweat socks into their shirts?
to block bullets?
to keep them warm?
to use them to cover their heads later so they don't get recognised?

or maybe, does the word 'sweatsocks' have another meaning other than meaning wollen socks? does it also mean guns? or maybe they put their guns into the sweatsocks something?

well, i'll been thinking about it for a while, so can anyone help me out?

thanks

are you a blonde?

I think the line was originally "slip these sweat socks in your crotch" but they decided it wouldn't go over well.
