(Don Pearce) writes:

A tic is a spasm of the facial muscles. A short sharp sound is a TICK
- like what a clock does.

It's also the first half of a breath mint, as in "tic-tac", or the first third
of a child's game, "tic-tac-toe".

....

Oh... OH! That kind of thing... let's not forget "your" & "you're".
