Why did the clock retire?

The phrase "ticked off" meaning annoyed or angry dates back to the 1960s, while clocks have been literally "ticking" for centuries! The constant ticking sound that helps us keep time can indeed be irritating in quiet environments - many people prefer silent digital clocks in bedrooms and offices for this very reason.
