Maybe my age is showing, but........what the fuck is "ratchet"?
[–]Norm_Peterson 20ポイント21ポイント22ポイント 9日 前 (1子コメント)
"Ratchet" is a black slang word that originally referred to a woman who - like the tool of the same name - was only good for getting nuts off. It has since come to mean anyone, male or female (although still mostly females), who dresses or acts trashy or "ghetto."

What?!?
From what I understand it's just a variation of the word wretched that changed over time.
Wretched --> Wratched --> Wrachet --> Rachet

apparently so
i go back on forth between thinking that this sub is surprisingly decent for reddit and being genuinely taken aback by how weirdly bigoted this place can be

There's a difference between black people and ratchet. Ratchet is the equivalent of white trash.

I feel like you're implying something, but I'm not clear what. Can you elaborate?
[–]3v3ryd4yw1nn1n6 12ポイント13ポイント14ポイント 9日 前 (13子コメント)
He's talking about "there's a difference between black people and n******" implying that ratchet is the new code word for the "n word"
[–]rocksauceWest Midtown 4ポイント5ポイント6ポイント 8日 前 (10子コメント)
Oddly, in a way /u/zilean is the one implying all black people fall into one category. Most of us who live in Atlanta know what crowd the op is talking about and none of us give a shit what color they are. Are people just that scared to be racist that they cannot judge people that are not the same ethnic background as themselves?

You are completely fabricating all of that. I at least made a valid point.

There will always be two facets of African Americans. Those who dress like ghetto thugs and those who don't. As long as these two facets exist, society will continue to come up with terms to describe the latter. It just so happens that term now is "rachet

ratchet came from the hip hop community as far as I know, so it is closer to White Trash than the "n word" (which by the way that sounds stupid as hell to say and is even worse to type. Banned words? that we need to is sad)

isn't there a chris rock routine you're supposed to be quoting at me now
[–]LinkBalls 10ポイント11ポイント12ポイント 9日 前 (3子コメント)
He actually dislikes that whole thing now because white people would use it to be racist.

How can it be racist if it's true?

I have no idea actually!

When I hear ratchet, white trash is actually what comes to mind.

It's not an OED word, so I guess everyone has their own definition? Not sure!

This is actually a metaphor for Atlanta. It's like, "Oh wow, I'm in the most liberal, educated, wealthy spot in the entire southeast and there are people here who think like me!"
And then you realize if you go 15 miles in any direction, you're right back in thick of bigoted racist biblevania. And those people have access to the Internet, and accidentally think they live in Atlanta.
Which is how we end up with /r/Atlanta.

most liberal, educated, wealthy spot in the entire southeast
Not even close, although it's at least two out of three of these things among cities with a black majority. (ATL's black population share has been decreasing for 25 years, and will likely no longer be majority-black in the next census)
Edit: sorry Reddit doesn't like facts. You don't get to compare Atlanta only to Mississippi and Arkansas. You have to also compare to Virginia and Texas, parts of which are doing better than ATL. It's not a competition.
[–]FemaleSquirtingIsPee 2ポイント3ポイント4ポイント 9日 前 (5子コメント)
Not even close,
I'm curious, with the mason-dixon line, the Atlantic ocean, and Texas being the borders, what other city in the southeast is more liberal, educated, and wealthy?
[–]quasifun 1ポイント2ポイント3ポイント 9日 前 (0子コメント)
It depends on what you call a "city". Berkeley CA is pretty liberal, but is it a city or a suburb of San Francisco? How about Decatur, is it a city or just a suburb of Atlanta? If you count Decatur as part of Atlanta, do you also get to count the wealthy northern suburbs of Atlanta? How about the poorest parts of south Dekalb, do they count?
But in general, the most educated place in the southeast is RTP, centering on Chapel Hill. Probably most liberal too, although that's harder to measure. Most large southeast cities have had governments you'd call "liberal". Texas is a conservative state, but the cities of Austin and Houston, and to a lesser extent Dallas have liberal/progressive Democrat mayors. Houston is the biggest city in the US with an openly gay mayor.
The wealthiest counties in the southeast are in northern Virginia. The Mason Dixon line includes DC and Maryland, some of which is very wealthy. Maryland is not traditionally a southern state. The wealthiest metro area is DC. Dallas and Houston are also wealthier, depending on how you measure it.
BTW the wealthiest city in the southeast with a population over 50,000 is Johns Creek.

Miami?
[–]FemaleSquirtingIsPee 4ポイント5ポイント6ポイント 9日 前 (0子コメント)
Ive lived near Miami - you'd be hard pressed to find someone who thinks of the city as southern. No plantations there. Equal parts northern and Cuban transplants.
[–]cassiope 1ポイント2ポイント3ポイント 8日 前 (0子コメント)
When I lived in Miami, which granted was 20 years ago, it was totally run by the GOP - mostly related to the folks from Cuba. Culturally not southern. Also, not all that wealthy. Has it changed?
[–]quasifun 0ポイント1ポイント2ポイント 9日 前 (0子コメント)
Like many large US cities, Miami is not wealthy, but some of its suburbs are. The Miami metro area overall is not even in the top 100. Being a hub for immigration and relocation from other parts of the US, some people do not classify south Florida as being "the southeast", but that's cultural, not geographical.

Or it's a way of saying "black people who act too boisterous for my comfort level".

Finding out the answer to that was the only reason I clicked on this post. I thought it might mean something to do with a certain kind of behavior, but apparently it's just being used as another word for black. Disappointing.

Urban Dictionary is your friend
[–]autourbanbot 5ポイント6ポイント7ポイント 9日 前 (0子コメント)
Here's the Urban Dictionary definition of Ratchet :
A diva, mostly from urban cities and ghettos, that has reason to believe she is every mans eye candy. Unfortunately, she's wrong. Typical signs to beware of include, but are not limited to: -owning a Blackberry -BLARES anything by Drake, 2Chainz, Nicki Minaj, Gucci Mane, Waka Flocka, Lil Wayne, T-Pain, Cali Swag District, or any other garbage entertainment rapper -rowdily quotes "lyrics" from aforementioned artists -has a weave reminiscent of a bird's nest after a tempest hit the tree it was in, and is dyed at least thrice -wears torn leggings/stalkings (mostly of the fishnet variety), unpolished 8" heels (or higher, depending on how God-awful they look), fitted jean jackets (to accent the blubber 'round their arms and stomach), and 4 layers of caked on make-up to go clubbing -repeatedly use ludicrous terms such as "YOLO", "swag", "boost", "beaking", "doe", "really", "naw", "actually", "twerk", "coaster", "dagga", etc., to make a valid statement when they speak -have side bangs, despite having incredibly small-ass foreheads to support them -are commonly overweight and are mind-numbingly stupid; a safe assumption to make would be saying they're uneducated (as if they could pass the 4th grade) If spotted, please report to the authorities, notifying them that they are possible smack addicts, or potential, degenerate Chaka Khan look-alikes.
A diva, mostly from urban cities and ghettos, that has reason to believe she is every mans eye candy. Unfortunately, she's wrong.
Typical signs to beware of include, but are not limited to:
-owning a Blackberry
-BLARES anything by Drake, 2Chainz, Nicki Minaj, Gucci Mane, Waka Flocka, Lil Wayne, T-Pain, Cali Swag District, or any other garbage entertainment rapper
-rowdily quotes "lyrics" from aforementioned artists
-has a weave reminiscent of a bird's nest after a tempest hit the tree it was in, and is dyed at least thrice
-wears torn leggings/stalkings (mostly of the fishnet variety), unpolished 8" heels (or higher, depending on how God-awful they look), fitted jean jackets (to accent the blubber 'round their arms and stomach), and 4 layers of caked on make-up to go clubbing
-repeatedly use ludicrous terms such as "YOLO", "swag", "boost", "beaking", "doe", "really", "naw", "actually", "twerk", "coaster", "dagga", etc., to make a valid statement when they speak
-have side bangs, despite having incredibly small-ass foreheads to support them
-are commonly overweight
and are mind-numbingly stupid; a safe assumption to make would be saying they're uneducated (as if they could pass the 4th grade)
If spotted, please report to the authorities, notifying them that they are possible smack addicts, or potential, degenerate Chaka Khan look-alikes.
Imagine a woman that wears skinny clothes, bad looking heels & fishnet stalkings, blasts Drake or Waka off her phone, would go out of her way as to cop CD's from these artists, has a bad hairdo, looks immensely disgusting as a human being, and would rather spend her time maintaining her looks, communicating among her folk, and being a jobless, gold-digging bum for the rest of her days, not even bothering to get herself a good shower, a paying career, and a damned effort to earn a diploma.
That, my comrades, is a prime notoriety of a ratchet.
God help us all.
