crick crick

If you think my neck is stiff, you're wrong. Crick-crick was the sound a professor used to make (many many years ago) when she asked the class a question and nobody answered (including myself), meaning that it was like the sounds heard in the countryside when it was dark (and all that could be heard was the chirp crickets made).

Many years later, watching a tv show I hear the same sound expressing the same idea. She should have made a copyright out if it. Because now, with no exceptions (but myself), I hear everybody using the expression.
