/Sounds like "tee" (as in "tea") + "ree" (as in "reed") + "LOHN" (as in "loan")/
A laid-back, rebellious barrio dude in Chicano pachuco slang, tied to the zoot suit style and 1940s marijuana culture. A historical term that lives on as a cultural identity marker among U.S. Latinos.
“My grandfather was one of the tirilones in El Paso back in the forties.”
“He dresses full pachuco style, pure old-school vibes.”

A Chilean expression telling someone to get lost, go away, or just expressing strong annoyance. It's the softened Chilean version of a stronger expression, direct but not as brutal as it could be.
