It essentially means the number of replies For/Against the tweet are such that those "Against" are at a much higher percentage than the replies "For". In this case, almost all the replies are making fun of her stupidity.

Edit: I'm wrong. Correct responses below my reply.

I don't believe that is correct. At least from what I've always heard, getting "ratioed" means that there are far more comments than likes on a given tweet. Since there is no "dislike" button, it's the best metric we have to determine if someone fucked up in a tweet.

Bear in mind, I've been off twitter since 2012, so I might be wrong.

Thank you. I believe you are right. I am wrong.

Not exactly. Ratio means the number of comments is much higher than the number of likes. (which means you probably said something stupid and not "likable".)

You are correct, my bad. Too old for these new-fangled things.

Wear your lack of knowledge about what happens on Twitter like a badge. In this day and age, it's something to actually be proud of.
