ranbat

noun

Short for Ranking Battle.
Also, possibly Random Battle.

It's a term widely used among 2d fighting game enthusiasts, as a word used for local gatherings of competitive playing.

Such "ranbats" are often arranged online, from different popular communities such as Shoryuken.com or tekkenzaibatsu.com.
A handful of players gather, and usually play one another in an informal tournament, usually for fun and training.
According to their performance, there is an informal "ranking" element behind the participants, and usually the top few names enjoy web notoriety, and perhaps even seeding privileges a larger tournament down the road.

The more popular ranbats feature
Street Fighter: Third Strike

rangatarian

A Rangatarian is an individual who has a ginger-specific sexual appetite, and is therefore only going to pursue sex partners that are redheads (aka "Ranga", as in Orangutan; having hair like). A person can have a Vegetarian food diet, and so similarly a person can have a Rangatarian sexual diet. Sexual Orientation: Rangatarian.
"The ginger bartender from last night was a total wanker, but he must've known I was a Rangatarian, so he knew I'd still have awesome sex with him, and so I did, and I'd do it again, and again..."
