A vivid Caribbean term for a gossip or talebearer — someone who carries stories from one place and brings drama to another. The beauty of the phrase is it literally describes the behaviour in four words: they pick up gossip over here and deliver it over there, stirring up trouble along the way. It's a colourful, no-nonsense way to call out someone who can't keep their mouth shut and thrives on spreading other people's business.
