1. A psychological or social state where a person stands firm in their belief or opinion, convinced of their absolute correctness, even when they are met with universal hatred, opposition, and disagreement from every other individual.
2. The unshakable conviction that you are the sole champion of truth, while everyone else is lost, flawed, or simply an idiot. This person has willingly or accidentally become a "ronin"—a lone, masterless warrior—of their own flawed opinion.
3. The rare social phenomenon where an entire group of people achieves perfect consensus on only one issue: the fact that a single, stubbornly confident person is completely wrong.
I tried to show him the math, but he's got a classic case of The Ronin Complex—he's decided he's a lone wolf intellectual and the rest of us are sheep
Don't even try to argue with her about the new marketing plan; she's deep in The Ronin Complex and is convinced our entire team is just too small-minded to see her genius.
A once great clanless player and master of Counter-Strike 1 and 2 who normally went by ronin until he became the DrunKeN GoD due to excessive amounts of rum and coke, (mostly Heaven Hill rum but sometimes Captain Morgan.) When he achieves the perfect state of drunkeness becomes nearly invincible racking up scores of kills in the double digits while obtaining zero deaths. When he has surpassed his limits he tends to have much fun blocking, stabbing, flashing and shooting his teammates. Though he specifically chooses and targets certain teammates, normally those who are cocky pricks. But he will still have fun with the "cool" teammates who aer his "homies." His skills and personality commends respect.

Constructed in the early 70's, origionally planned as a mining facility for extracting Rontonium. Later converted into a evil hideout of the one known as Ron Witkowski
Any house/apartment/frat house/trailer/etc. which is used for individuals to crash (sleep, chill, hang out, lurk, etc.) for a period of time. In order to "crash", one must not actually live there (e.g. have their name on the lease, own said flophouse, etc.). Flophouses are typically used by college students, drug addicts, transients, vagrants, or other unsavory characters.
A flophouse may also be the home owned by the parents of a college student, who after being away at college, wishes to live as if he/she is still at college (e.g. staying out all night, returning just to crash at mom and dad's house, then leaving again), rather than conforming to the pre-college rules.
Example #1
Dude: (Talking to someone passed out face first on the floor of his college apartment) Hey man, who the hell are you? What do you think this is, a flophouse??
Bro: Sorry dude, I must have passed out for a minute.
Example #2
Mom: Where have you BEEN for the last three days? You come home just to sleep?? What do you think this is, a flophouse??!!
A person you hate intensely not because they deserve such hatred but because they serve as a focus for your general hatred. A healthy way to dispense with excess animosity.
