Ratchet

A fake ass bitch who usually hails from urban or city areas and lives by ghetto slang & unnecessary swearing. The common ratchet wears over-the-top fake lashes, horribly drawn eye brows, caked on makeup that is 2-3 shades darker than her neck, and has several meaningless tattoos (some examples include ex-boyfriend references and roses). Ratchets also experience hair loss (hence the use of a weave) and will be mistaken for a balding man and/or trany. When it comes to wardrobe, the Ratchet buys clothes too small that accentuate her rolls. See-thru leggings w/holes are a staple in a Ratchet's closet, so when she bends over you can see her thong on dat pancake booty. Her social media will typically consist of bad angled selfies, any type of alcoholic drink with caption "bae <3", and videos of her "blowing dat loud". Overall, it is pretty easy to spot a Ratchet from a mile away.

-Note to females: If a Ratchet is ever your competition, do NOT be offended. She is just picking up your trash.
-Note to males: If you are ever desperate for a bitch, remember Ratchets are easy and common rebounds. Just don't be surprised when she fakes a pregnancy or asks for a little coin after.
Girl #1: I can't believe he hooked up with her less than a week after we broke up!

Girl #2: Don't worry, he's probably embarrassed to be with that ratchet because that's all he could get in a short amount of time!
