slick ratchets

N. A female who uses deception to slyly avoid you seeing any images of her while slipping her way into your text messages or DMS(twitter) to start a conversation with you.

This usually results in you finding out she is ratchet as all fuck by her either sending a picture, snapchat, or using facetime to contact you.

Situations with these people can be humorous to others so they are often screenshotted and posted on twitter for others to enjoy.

Dale: "yo this gurl bout to send me a pic wanna see if she sexy"

Blake: "hell yea nigga"

Dale: "damn she's ratchet as fuck look at this"

Blake: "slick ratchets these days slidin in the dms like its nothing!!!"
