Pseudocite 

When you quote your own secret alter ego to make yourself sound smarter, more credible, or like someone agrees with you… but surprise! It’s just you.
Example:

“According to renowned economist Chad Flexington, my plan is genius.”
— Bro, did you just pseudocite yourself?

pseudoceleb 

A known personality who is only or mostly famous for their work on reality TV, getting pics taken by the paparazzi, putting out sex tapes and/or going on multiple talk shows. Someone who is famous and/or talked about without actually having any talent or actual career other than being and promoting themselves. A person who is famous only for being well known.

Paris Hilton is a prime example of being a pseudoceleb. The housewives on Bravo are pseudocelebs. Snooki and the Jersey Shore cast are all pseudocelebs. Scott Disick is a hanger on Kardashian and lives off being a pseudoceleb by hosting parties at nightclubs. Many has been famous people drift into being pseudocelebs when they get desperate for attention and/or money.

Pseudointellectual

A pseudointellectual is someone who spews great amounts of garbage, interlaces it with huge words, and then expects to be accepted by the generally weak-minded sheep as a true intellectual. they are to be pitied and shown no leniency whenever you tromp on them with an actual argument. script kiddies are often pseudointellectuals.

A weak minded person who tries to convince others that he is intelligent, by writing or talking nonsense using complicated terms and expressions is called pseudointellectual.

pseudoscience 

A branch of science without an existing subject.

People engaged in either branch of pseudoscience claim it to be science, either from delusion, ignorance or greed (or all of it). Pseudoscience is invoked in explanations for paranormal phenomenons but not limited to.

Pseudoscience fails to fulfill the definition of science, e.g falsifiability, inconsistance and contradiction of existing knowledge, inabillity to make presumption based on observations or just making a testable hypothesis to an observed phenomenon.

Related to junk scince.

1. Theology - literary, the science of god
2. Intelligent Design - uses "Desinger did it" as a stand-in for argument ad ignorantiam on the science of evolution.
3. Most of the New Age concepts are pseudoscience, such as...
4. Homeopathy - contradicts most of molecular and medical science

pseudointellectual

Created solely as an attempt to display the author's intellectual prowess though actually void of real pith; intellectualism as style rather than substance. Often relies on heavy name dropping and erudite, obscure terminology instead of easily understood, common words.

As much as I like DJ Spooky, when he starts talking on the CD I always skip the tracks to avoid his long pseudointellectual musings.
