Intellectual Orgasm

When you hear something that is so profound, brilliant, or novel, that it blows your mind.

Guy 1: "... and thats how the theory of evolution works."
Guy 2: "Holy shit man, I think I just had an intellectual orgasm"

Teacher: "So I was reading through these economics tests last night when I came across Sam's example of a vineyard as one of the best positive externalities. It was so brilliant I had an intellectual orgasm."

Intellectual Fatigue

The heavy-headed feeling one gets after a long day of only mind related activities such as writing a paper, studying for an exam, preparing presentations, doing mathematics, working on proposals, etc etc.

I got a serious bout of intellectual fatigue after spending the entire day reading Gadamar's 'Truth and Method' for my aesthetics class tomorrow.

Intellectual ballache

Inability to express yourself for fear of drowning the recipient.

The sufferer has too much to say and fear that he or she will not be understood and that the recipient will feel overwhelmed.

I was on a date with a really cute, but not too clever, guy yesterday. I suffered from intellectual ballache throughout the date. He is not used to dating academics.
