    Nurse Ratchet has nothing to do with African American Vernacular English, or “ebonics”.

    Just gonna add that bringing AAVE and education into the conversation (which has nothing to do with ebonics or education whatsoever) makes you come off a bit like a possible race baiting dog whistler. It’s an amazingly easy thing to avoid, so I’ve tagged you with a cute lil nickname to keep track.
