    ranting: noun

    a long, angry, and impassioned speech. “at times, his rantings would become incoherent”

    adjective

    speaking at length in an angry and impassioned way.

    I’m more familiar with the definition that includes the length of the speech. If you were using a definition that only refers to the energy, then I wouldn’t call it hyperbole.

      No worries, the English language is almost completely illogical.

      But yeah, with a 2 minute timer it’s hard to go into that meaning of a rant.

      More of the “ranting and raving” then like a Dennis Leary standup joke that has a 45 minute set up.

      Edit:

      Oh and your clip is the only one that came up when I was searching, I might try and flip thru the whole debate if I can find that to see if it came up twice. But I probably won’t be that much energy into it, I was probably just remembering it wrong
