Tjoerie

A well deserved ode to the tjoerie. The what?!? The tjoerie, which is the Surinamese word for what is know in the French West Indies als 'le tchip' and in the English speaking part of the Caribbean as 'kiss-teeth'.

When something or someone becomes too annoying, one always has an effective weapon at their disposal: a long, cricket-like sound of which the effect combined with rolling eyes is deadly insulting. There is no one that does not respect a good tjoerie.
