... with these vile underclass youths that insist on co-opting the term for a tool.
This is a ratchet wrench. It fastens and unfastens nuts/bolts/etc in tight places like a boss.
I just learned that this is some kind of slang term. I feel old.
GET OFF MY LAWN!

The coworkers were talking about it and I was like, “wtf?”.
I blame it on not watching TV. I hate humanity.

If I crank them, will they tighten and loosen my nuts for me?

You don’t want those ratchets anywhere near your nuts. Trust me.

Ohhh..that had to have been confusing there for a second.
“She’s so RACHET.”
“Pass me my rachet...? Is that what you said over there?”
“Whose talking to you, gramps?”

Don’t forget the humble ratchet strap, and all the other tools that employ ratchet mechanisms.

I love ratchet straps...
I feel like they’re dissing science and those of us that use tools with this slang.

No, they probably mean wretched, but are using ratchet.

Absolutely nothing. No sarcasm intended (that might be a first for me). I thought it was the co-opted term you were referring to until I saw the rest of the image.

I heard it first from a white kid that hangs out in some really rough ghettos on weekends looking for old Subaru parts...
Not racist, definitely classist.
