Tick: And so, may Evil beware and may Good dress warmly and eat lots of fresh vegetables.
Tick: Everybody was a baby once, Arthur. Oh, sure, maybe not today, or even yesterday. But once. Babies, chum: tiny, dimpled, fleshy mirrors of our us-ness, that we parents hurl into the future, like leathery footballs of hope. And you've got to get a good spiral on that baby, or evil will make an interception.

Get the The Tick mug.adj. Bloated and obese. Derives from the state of a tick(parasitic insect) after it has gorged itself on a host mammal's blood. Not complimentary. I've heard it in the context of Australian slang, but I'm sure it's spoken all over the place.

Get the Tick Dick mug.An extremely questionable weekend destination in Canton, N.Y. where college students go. One "dances" in the Tick-Tock, and is tipically inebreated at this location. One also tends to go with the intent of getting laid.
"Wow, the Tick-Tock was a waste of five dollars."
"Dude, I know, we just gave away our money to the Fat Man."
"I was so drunk at the Tick-Tock, I don't remember making out with him at all!"
