Ratchification of America 

Purposely lowering your intelligence level to seem more "thug" or "skreet". This attitude developed sometime after MTV stopped playing music and dumb ass shows like 16 and pregnant, and Bad Girls Club started airing. The epidemic seems to grow daily, and is being embraced by the youth of America. Many of them think that the dumber and or crazier you act, the cooler you are, and the higher on the social ladder one will climb.
Mark: Have you seen Shaqumphria?

Bill: Yeah, she gained like 200 lbs since high school and is still wearing those spandex she had in tenth grade, not to mention her fucked up weave, gold teeth, eye piercings, and tattoos on her neck. She used to be classy and was on the honer roll, now she works at Dollar General, walks with a gangsta lean, and shows 50 pounds of pierced overflowing mid drift, speaks ghettoneese, with those 3 inch fake nails and a tramp stamp that says open 24/7.
Mark: That's the ratchification of America

Ratchetossis 

A heightened and more dangerous stage, level or state of Ratchocity. It is Ratchocity with an extreme case of restless leg syndrome followed by the "hmmmmm bra's" .... Often locked in to the ratchetness with no care as to how to escape. Stage 2...
When I went to remove the cumquat that was duct taped to Fletcher's temple. I immediately realized. That he had leap frogged past Ratchocity straight to ratchetossis. Oh sweet prince, you are done for & no one can help you. Ratchetossis will soon exhume your soul.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
