Can only find one source so far, and it's in Spanish, but we may have lost Apone. :(

He's up in the big Dropship in the sky yelling at Bill Paxton now.
Usually playing as Darwin 'D.J.' Jefferson, PFC (Private: Flare Carrier), or Smartgunner almost always out of ammo. Occasionally an RO who yearns for death, dealing with rampant jackassery of his coworkers.

It's basically a way of saying "I'm not amused."

He was also giving Hudson the middle finger while doing it, so I'm guessing it's a military thing where Sergeant aren't allowed to say "Fuck you" to a Private, so that was Apone's way of saying "Kiss my ass, Hudson."
