A young person who does not fully grasp the full meaning of the term "intellectual," and frequently uses it to describe themselves as such in an attempt to appear "edgy" or apart from others their age.
Me, an Edgellectual, describing myself: I stay up late ready philosophy, I only read news from Think Tanks, I don't listen to pop music, I want to live the life of the mind, adults always say I am mature for my age.

Get the Edgellectual mug.The most painful torture method constructed by Sari Factor was originally theorized in 1988 but used widely throughout the 2010s and 2020s. This torture method clocks in at around 600 DOL, but depending on the usage, it can go upwards to 3000+ DOL.

Get the edgehilluni mug.somebody who adopts the ethics and lifestyle of straight edge just to be cool. It may be done to hold a moral high-ground over your peers, or just a reason to combat your homo-erotic feelings by punching somebody in the face, a means of justification if you will.

Tries (and fails) to randomly insert edgy shock value content (often in the forms of extreme nihilism, feigned sociopathy, and all-around pisspoor attempts to look cool and brooding when he wants attention) into conversations either edgy content or he himself has no part in, or otherwise does so randomly because he feels the conversation is dead and he wants attention to be focused on him for a change.
Talks a big game and tries very hard to one-up anyone who (rightly) gives him grief for acting like an idiot, but seems to fail at it every single time because he lacks the spine and stomach to uphold or otherwise back up any of the crap he spews.
Probably does all of this in an ongoing and vain attempt to make others miserable with shock value, so as to bring them down to whatever level of misery he likely deals with. If he can successfully do this, then someone's as equally miserable as he seems to be AND he'll have the "superiority" at having brought them down there all on his own. Ergo, it all looks to be an attempt to feed into his ego so that he can feel a bit better about himself.
Would probably be a swell dude if he wasn't trying way too hard to be a Nietzsche wannabe, but he doesn't seem willing or able to examine whatever personal flaws he has in his system and overcome them despite having the exact problems explained to him on multiple occasions. Really a shame, all things considered.

Goteph is a tryhard edgelord who really needs to get it through his head that nobody's impressed or shocked at his antics.

Get the Edgelord mug.Middle school in Highland Park that’s filled with different weird cliques. The Naughty Nine, Scoot Crew, and Bagel Squad. They’re all just rich, privileged kids. Most of them are just super rude to the teachers. Also, if you’re not Jewish you’re not cool. Everyone is Jewish. There’s like, 20 BM’s per month. I’ve heard there’s some private school jewish girls obsessed with our school. There’s no AC. It literally sucks. If you’re moving to Highland Park, don’t come to Edgewood.
Person 1: Dang, she’s cute. What school does she go to?
Person 2: Edgewood Middle School.
Person 1: Oh she’s ugly
