vi. [WPI] 1. To persist in discussing a specific subject. 2. To speak
|
|
|
|
|
authoritatively on a subject about which one knows very little. 3. To
|
|
|
|
|
complain to a person who is not in a position to correct the difficulty. 4.
|
|
|
|
|
To purposely annoy another person verbally. 5. To evangelize. See flame. 6.
|
|
|
|
|
Also used to describe a less negative form of blather, such as friendly
|
|
|
|
|
bullshitting. Rave differs slightly from flame in that rave implies that it
|
|
|
|
|
is the persistence or obliviousness of the person speaking that is annoying,
|
|
|
|
|
while flame implies somewhat more strongly that the tone or content is
|
|
|
|
|
offensive as well.
