A) synonym for Hipster
B) one who makes proclamations that to the lay-person may sound edgy, controversial, new, deep or thought-out, but to anyone with more detailed knowledge, will be instantly dismissed as a load of posturing bullshit.
One of their favoured fallacies when challenged on an absurdity is the courtier's reply - 'you just don't understand/aren't clever enough/aren't in the know'.
They lack social graces and wisdom, and are quick to jump on factual errors to make themselves feel better, as they pride intellectual prowess over good manners, kindness and humour which makes them tiresome company.
They do not believe in intellectual democracy for the betterment of others, but aristocracy to belittle others.
They will insist you read books, watch films and listen to music they've heard of but may not have read, seen or heard themselves, and enjoy dropping names of authors, directors, musicians and other artists that are avante-garde, cult or classical, even if they have no real exposure to their work, most likely having read about them in a paper, magazine or website aimed at the pretentious and po-faced. They are also vulnerable to being 'Sokal'd' in their desperation to look learned and superior.
Most tellingly, the pseudo-intellectual is prickly and insecure around those they might learn from, while a well-adjusted, moderately intelligent person is always keen to learn from those with greater insight and reading.

Pseud'; 'but of course, Ingmar Bergman's films are so camp'.
Sycophants; hahahaha!
Somebody who has seen a Bergman film; 'Utter shite! Name me one and describe how it is 'camp', or consider yourself a pseudo-intellectual'.
Pseud'; i don't have to explain my reasoning to you'.

Sales Gimp: I'm really loving this idea just now. Let's push the envelope and make it even more actionable. We're on a journey. Oo-rah!

A non-Brit whose appreciation of quaint, English customs, Harry Potter, Dr Who, Sherlock etc is about the limit of their knowledge, forgetting that modern UK is nothing like a lot of these shows portray for most of the people living there.
Teeaboos are not particularly new, as Americans and non-europeans have enjoyed twee and anachronistic visions for decades, such as the Richard Curtis movies that were cynically marketed to US audiences, while bizarrely extinguishing the presence of non-whites (see Notting Hill) from London.
Weirdly, children's sci-fi Dr Who is more demographically realistic in it's portrayal of modern Britain than most popular exports, but is still 'London-centric'. Unfortunately, this is because the BBC is Londoncentric in its programming and ignores many other regions of the nation, with their own rich histories and cultures.

A social media platform for vain, bored adults suffering from arrested development who want to impress celebrities with their wit, or insult cthose they hate or they think have 'transgressed' in some manner. This is made more likely by a character limit which makes jokes and insults the easiest way to grab attention and followers, some of whom may be fake accounts.
Generally benign users may be caught up in a twitter storm, when vocal political activists lash out and project their social ineptitude on anyone they disagree with. Twitter has been used by many in creating online echo chambers, doxxing, dog-piling and bullying people out of employment. It also acts like a late-capitalist version of the Stasi.
Generally useful if you want to shout into the digital aether.
