Faux-Intellectual

n. A person, usually male, that believes that they are intellectually gifted, making them superior to their perceived competition inherently. What makes them so unique (and unpleasant...) is their outspoken manner of self-righteousness. Most examples, to give the reader an application of the term, respond to outrage headlines with utmost skepticism, and will bother the poster for facts to prove to the faux-intellectual that it isn't actually fake. Faux-intellectuals almost always behave as if they are above impassioned impulse reactions - when, in reality, such reactions are normal. Ironically, as an aside, most faux-intellectuals respond rather defensively and abrasively to being called out.
"Terry spent a good four hours last night picking apart the new GoT season and talking down anybody that interjected."
"He's a faux-intellectual. He needs to admire the sound of his own voice at least six times a day, else he's liable to combust."

quote from post 15: "Processor company that, currently, is not the best for games, but is best for all around pc usuage. It does not even lag that much behind AMD (strictly gaming cpus) in most games. Retarded AMD fanboys that have no life and just play games all day suffer from windows crashing b/c their stupid Athlon64 wasnt built to multitask. Try playin mp3s, surfin web, and downloading at same time on an athlon64 and you will guarantee crash. Intel on the other hand, is a real cpu, built for everything. Gaming nerds back AMD b/c they are the underdogs to Intel, and also these AMD boys are poor college kids that dont know shit." my definition

1: shit
2: not a cpu manufacturer, a chu (central heating unit) manufacturer
3: beaten easily by AMD cpu's
4: horrible at multitasking
1: Dammit Bob I told you to take the intel products down to the street. Now I have to wait until next week to get rid of it!
2: Paul overclock that fucking intel a bit more, I'm fucking freezing!
3: Joe, you need to fucking get rid of your goddamn intel, my sister's shit computer with 256mb of RAM, onboard audio, and everything else on it being even more shit can double process better than your computer with two intel P4 EE's supporting HT can with 4gb of RAM an SCSI hard-drive, and the best of every other component.
4: Billy, my old P4 EE supporting HT caused crashes at least once a day, and my AMD Duron has never been the cause of a crash. Be smart, don't get intel

Now children, don't be dumb, get AMD!
