Ratchet is my weird word thing. Why are you talking about a hand tool? Why does it mean disgusting? One of my highschoolers tried explaining it to me, saying it has something to do with, and I honestly quote, "black culture. Like, the black girls with big butts and work it, y'know..."

"...Like a ratchet?"

"Like a what?"

"-_-..."

But it's supposed to mean gross, like when "a hot mess" was bad thing.

I'm pretty sure it's derived from a mispronunciation of "wretched". Not from the tool.

My mind would come to a stop if someone tried to use that as slang with me. Ratchet??? = Black??? = disgusting?!?!?!!?!
