tickness

as opposed to the typical pronunciation "thickness" which refers to a thick, desirable, voluptuous woman (usually with a large behind and fine curves), this word is pronounced tick-ness, so as to adhere more to the gangster accent/origin from which the term is derived

O hello woman, go on 'n' get ovrr hrrr tickness.

On tick

To acquire something immediately but pay for it later. Most often used when buying drugs but quite valid for any kind of purchase.

There are thee possible origins of the term:

* The vendor keeps a list of who owes what, and "ticks" them off the list on payment
* The vendor has to wait, the clock is ticking
* The customer is a filthy parasite, like a tick on a dogs back.

Customer: What sandwich can I get for six-fiddy?
Vendor: Sorry, sandwiches start at eight dollars.
Customer: Can I get one on tick?
Vendor: I think not.
