Intelligent

Someone with a never-ending desire to understand more about the world, even if it means going out of their comfort zone and approaching topics they don’t have experience with. Intelligent people are always asking questions, but they don’t just ask for the sake of it; you can tell they’re genuinely listening. They want to know every perspective before building their own opinion. They are driven by a real sense of curiosity and the kind of questions they ask really force you to think. It is such a pleasure to meet someone like this; they lead you to the types of conversations you’ve likely never had before and leave you craving more. The only downside is that once you’re exposed to this quality of conversation, you find yourself wanting it in every person you meet, and you’ll often be left disappointed. If you meet someone like this, you will always end up coming back to them whenever you want to think in a way you never have before.
I want to know Maude's opinion on this, she's so intelligent she'll definitely have something interesting to say.

Intelligent lust 

The carnal need to mate felt between two highly intellectual people, who try and justify it to themselves, and re-enforce it to each other by describing their relationship as a spectacular intellectual bond, when actually they just need to fuck each others brains out.
PhD rocket scientist: "She's got a Nobel Prize - we are clearly made for each other. We'll be together forever, we've talked it all through already. It makes total sense."

Friend of rocket scientist: "Nah, that's just intelligent lust. Get over it."

Ex. of an Intelligent Post. "Not bad, but what would of happened if the cops came and saw you and your friends drinking? I don't think that, that bad-ass self of yours, that you stated to have earlier, would of appeared then."

intelligent design

An attempt by the apologists for creationism to artificially inject their metaphysical theory with scientific credibility. Intelligent design makes the "deduction" that the development of complex life on this planet was an intelligent creator, largly on the basis of argument by personal incredulity, a flawed understanding of Darwinian natural selection and fundamental misunderstandings of basic principles of thermodynamics and biology. Advocates claim natural selection/evolution (which they frequently confuse) are impossible, and often have links to other biblical-literlists that believe the earth is only 30000 years old, and other such fantasies. There is reason that the evidence would lead any impartial person to come to such conclusions; it is therefore an example of wishful thinking and by the principle of Occam's razon is a metaphysical (faith) based belief, not a scientific one. The continued deliberate obtuseness on this issue has led to fundamentalists attempting to force science teachers to present it in the classroom, and the general devaluing of science in the population of the US and other countries as a whole.
Although there is not a scrap of evidence for intelligent design, it is impossible to disprove (because god can do anything!), and hence it is a metaphysical theory.

Because natural selection is demonstrably observably occuring right now, it is a scientific theory.

intelligent design

An apparently unprovable hypothesis that living creatures were created by an all-powerful, intelligent entity that itself did not have a creator. Contrast with evolution. ID proponents typically fail to understand 4 things:

1) Scientists use the word "theory" differently than the layperson
2) Science operates just fine in the absence of absolute truths. Thus, if evolutionary theory doesn't explain everything, that's not a problem - it's a "work in progress"
3) People are no better off substituting a slightly imperfect scientific theory for a completely unsupported religious hypothesis
4) The fact that ID cannot be disproven is a weakness, not a strength (e.g. There are 482,331 raisins orbiting Saturn right now... I defy you to prove me wrong).
If Intelligent Design is such a great alternative explanation to evolutionary theory, why aren't proponents actually USING it to advance scientific understanding? In short, they should practice what they preach... literally.

Intelligent Retard 

An otherwise smart person who acts like a complete retard for unknown reasons. The intelligent retard usually lurks in universities wasting other people's time by making stupid or irrelevant comments repeatedly in order to (a) hear the sound of their own voice, (b) sound smart, or (c) make a retarded contribution to a coversation. They also have been known to repeat other peoples concise comments in a round-about twenty minute long narrative. There is no escape from the intelligent retard once they get going. Ignoring or shunning only has moderate success. Usually, you have to let their verbal diarrhea run it's course.
Teacher: Today we will be discussing ethical standards of practice

Intelligent Retard: (interrupts) I've read that according to the CPA guidelines................... (twenty minutes later)... so that's what I feel is correct.

Random Student: What an intelligent retard!
