A protocol for handling TCP traffic through a proxy server. It can be used with virtually any TCP application, including Web browsers and FTP clients. It provides a simple firewall because it checks incoming and outgoing packets and hides the IP addresses of client applications.
There are two main versions of SOCKS -- V4 and V5. V5 adds an authentication mechanism for additional security. There are many freeware implementations of both versions. One of the most common V5 implementations is SOCKS5, developed by NEC.

“It is what it is” in a loosely similar way of how the phrase is in Spanish. Saying each individual letter quickly will be the essence of “it is what it is” in Spanish. Basically means, “oh well, that’s life”

You say "Socks on" Before sexual intercourse of the same sex to let your partner know that what they're about to do is no longer homosexual (Gay) therefore being Heterosexual (Straight). Make sure your partner and anyone else in the room puts their socks on, otherwise the act will be considered gay.
Dave: Socks on!
Zack: Socks on!
*They both put their socks on*
*Dave slowly and sensually undresses Zack*
ME: You get the picture, we don't need to go any further than that

A variation of no cap but when you say something gay. Because everyone knows it's not gay if you have your socks on. No socks means it is intentionally gay. The opposite of no homo.
