Definition
离谱儿 (lí pǔr) means 'outrageous, ridiculous' — describing behavior, prices, or statements that are so extreme they're unbelievable. It's more intense than 夸张 (exaggerated) and overlaps with 不像话, but 不像话 is a stronger criticism of unacceptable conduct. 无理 merely means 'unreasonable' without the sense of absurdity.
