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.

A phrase to tell someone to hurry up or that they are taking too long, or let’s go, time is ticking. Often substituted for the similar phrase Tick Tock. Often when pronounced, the phrase wording is elongated.

Angry, annoyed; usually caused by someone else (one rarely becomes ticked by a situation). Also called 'ticked off'.
