The wretched ratchet told Nurse Ratched there’s more than one way to sink your teeth into the skin of a fat melon at medication time.
A dime of lollipops insisted the worsted bratwurst inflate the natural casings from the spent bullet during the ballet production of The Deer Hunter in IMAX with the lead taken by the halter to the altar of altered sea anemones–once by the Atlantic. Pestered into giving up the ghost, Mary gave another dram of doilies to the Count of Monty Hall, having first chosen the second door and then switching guesses to the trap door under the feet of the presenter–on live television no less.
No more would athletes die young along the banks of the Waterhouse headquarters once they gave up their quarterly reports, faltering with the ratchet along the Thames in the time of King James.

Oh, I’ve been so missing these-thank you!
As an aside, sideways the other ratchet (not rat shit) of which I am familiar, is a timing/modulation property added to a step of a (musical) sequencer, Voltage or MIDI that rrrrratchets the note, as in subdividing an assigned beat into meaningful or random repetitions. Think of any mechanized rhythm where what is expected has been a consistent BLAT and is this time around a DURRRRRR, Like the sound my dryer makes with coins in it. Sometimes they are consistently annoying and then they get redistributed by a ball of dog hair. Or consider a drum fill, but not one of oil or another substance but the one where when finger drumming your middle finger muscle spazzes out. The first part of the video is ratshitting in it’s simplest performance form. Imagine controlling that process with some Stochastic probability that resets, not just at those stages but across the length of the phrase and resets to another set of probabilities resulting in endless hours of shoegazing. While searching for this video I was thrown an advertisement from Harbor Freight Tools for, you guessed it, ratchets. https://www.google.com/search?q=sequencer+ratchet+demo&sca_esv=41019ffbed8a8b36&source=hp&ei=5ZzRaKXiM4WiqtsP57KCmQs&iflsig=AOw8s4IAAAAAaNGq9dQKUiaPaZR8DYySjwu43lbPV5he&ved=0ahUKEwjl6MiCh-2PAxUFkWoFHWeZILMQ4dUDCBo&uact=5&oq=sequencer+ratchet+demo&gs_lp=Egdnd3Mtd2l6IhZzZXF1ZW5jZXIgcmF0Y2hldCBkZW1vMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAEyBRAhGKABMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAFIvUJQ7gZY_T1wAXgAkAECmAHxBKAB-yuqAQs2LjMuNC40LjQuMbgBA8gBAPgBAZgCFaACuCaoAgrCAgoQLhgDGOoCGI8BwgIKEAAYAxjqAhiPAcICDhAuGIAEGLEDGNEDGMcBwgILEAAYgAQYsQMYgwHCAg4QLhiABBixAxiDARiKBcICERAuGIAEGLEDGNEDGIMBGMcBwgIOEAAYgAQYsQMYgwEYigXCAgsQLhiABBjRAxjHAcICBRAAGIAEwgIOEC4YgAQYsQMYxwEYrwHCAggQABiABBixA8ICCxAuGIAEGLEDGOUEwgIIEC4YgAQYsQPCAgYQABgWGB7CAgsQABiABBiGAxiKBcICCBAAGIAEGKIEwgIFEAAY7wXCAggQABgWGAoYHsICBRAhGKsCwgIFECEYnwWYAwXxBegaaEE0Fx0YkgcLNy4zLjQuMy4zLjGgB9WPAbIHCzYuMy40LjMuMy4xuAezJsIHBjUuMTUuMcgHIA&sclient=gws-wiz#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:0dd074db,vid:RhiC35Kp51o,st:0
