Regarding Joe Palooka: did he tsk too? If so, who came first: Popeye or Palooka?
One aspect of Popeye's humor was that his speech was imperfect ("I'm strong to the finish 'cause I eats me spinach"), so he may not be an authority on proper tsk-ing. Or may even be an authority on how to misuse it?
(Aside: how odd to be discussing, as precedents, the relative precedence of Popeye and Palooka.)
