It's hard to define this word. Basically a pseudo-intellectual is originally an average person who have the ability to absorb information but unable to do anything with it.
A pseudo-intellectual isn't exactly dumb, but he/she certainly isn't on par with a truly intelligent person.
A truly intelligent person understands "pattern", he doesn't need to read the newspaper on a daily basis to know what's happening around the globe, but rather he can accurately predict what would happen in a period of time. (This is exactly how people like Darwin was able to come up with Evolution, things come in pattern).
Characteristics of a pseudo-intellectual:
- Bragging about what college he is going to without giving a good legitimate reason. (Someone went to Cornell just to get a teaching degree)
- Using big words and foreign words in his/her writing or daily language in an un-necessary amount. (Someone who describes himself as a proponent of "independent citizens' movement")
- Inclined to join an Extremist Political Faction (Both right & left)
- See my 2nd point, except he/she lists a LARGE amount of bands/books/quotes in his biographies on his/her Facebook page.
- Being a Grammar Nazi (because they are too snobby and profound to understand what you've said when you left out the 's' at the end of a plural noun).
- Name is more important than inner quality (e.g. someone who claims Einstein as the Greatest scientist ever lived but doesn't know what he did.)
I used to be a pseudo-intellectual but I've realized how 'stupid' it made you look.
