After nine occurrences of the one-word sentence "Tip." in the museum section, the word occurs here for the tenth and last time in a three-word sentence ending not with a period but an exclamation mark and close-parenthesis: "Tip (Bullseye! Game!)"

During the museum section, Joyce also mentions a "Mont Tipsey." While Waterloo is near Mt. St. Jean, "Mont Tipsey" is non-existant and may mean "Mont Ipse," i.e., Mount Itself or Mount Himself (Latin "ipse"). Alternately, it may refer to a state of being mildly drunk
