A person trying to sound a lot smarter than they actually are but also dress in a manner that leaves very little to the imagination.
That man at the beach was using fancy words but didn't quite know how to use them, but that's OK because he's packing it down there. He's a Speedo-Intellectual.

Knowledge transfer without comprehension, or logical discovery. IE: Being trained vs. educated.
At a higher level this is akin to the Roman relationship with the Greeks, third world technology acquisition, and numerous examples.

The American Military engages in all kinds of intellectual panhandling.

The state of body shut down one goes through after excess studying. Usually happens to college students during finals week. Symptoms include problems communicating to others, ability to stay away, and physical exhaustion.

You knew I would have something to say about it right there didn't. That exact spot 😁 Now... I could make a jab and say "Well, maybe they're overestimating their intellectual capacity but I think that would be low hanging fruit. I think it's more interesting to say that the disparity is to great that I genuinely can't tell the difference between any of you.
Hym "You also have to consider (when talking about intellectual compatibility) the fact that half of the population doesn't believe in the I.Q. literature as a reliable metric for intellectual and refer to the fact that early I.Q. tests involved American history and pop-culture trivia while ingoring entirely the fact that THEY DON'T DO THAT NOW and it now consists in 3 sections (Word association, Logic, and Number sequencing). But I don't think number sequencing relates to general cognitive ability as it relates to a certain type of innate mathematical perception OR mathematical literacy (as it can be learned and once you know the equation that solves number sequence problems you can just solve the problems). Right? They're mostly proponents of multiple intelligences theory or rely on field expertise or education. But to use education as a metric for intelligence you have to presuppose that the people who have taken the course would have done better than the people who hadn't, had the latter people taken the course (Which you WOULD but only because my staggering brilliance would embarrass the professor and he would sabotage me out of spite). Expertise is meaningless if the conclusion drawn by way of your expertise is wrong. And multiple intelligences is just 'expertise' and 'education' and 'emotional intelligence (which isn't real)' and 'creativity' as, like, a plurality of ways in which a person can be considered 'intelligent.' So, there's that."
