A portmanteau of wit and intellectual. A wintellectual is a person who is in possession of both wit and intellect. It's a rare combination of human traits usually found in people who are either homosexuals; or heterosexuals who have experimented with homosexuality. They usually have a huge fan following on social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter and are often quoted by dullards and lesser beings for the purpose of getting laid. Wintellectuals are immensely erudite and articulate and have so much gravitas about them that every time they fart, it causes their fanboys to fap furiously.
Benjamin (Political Philosophy student at Oxford): Did you read Stephen Fry's amusing article in The Guardian about women and sexuality?
Maximus (Oriental Studies student at SOAS): Oh yes. I happen to follow him on Twitter. He tweeted a link to that. Must say he is one wintellectual ass bandit. fap fap fap.

Get the pseudo-intellectual mug.Oh man. I remember years ago when TED conferences were filled with genuinely inspiring, fascinating and ground-breaking presentations. That recent TEDx conference was just a pseudo-intellectual circle jerk.

Get the Pseudo-Intellectual Circle Jerk mug.Distinguishing between a "nerd" crush and typical "crush". Characterized by love of their mind, independent of their body or physical attraction. Can refer to person of same gender or opposite sex. Term is platonic in nature. Admiration of their unattainable intellectual or academic skill/thought process/insight, to a level of raw mental magnetism. In context, meant as a true and genuine compliment and can be used between friends or colleagues.

Get the Intellectual Crush mug.The term 'intellectually juvenile' politely describes someone who is unintelligent, unwise or just not the 'sharpest knife in the drawer'.
The term 'intellectually juvenile' applies to a person, or group of people, who are not as developed in their thinking as they should be for their age, education, experience, geographical location, social environment, etc.
Background: Most of the people who are constantly calling other people 'stupid' are well known to be 'not-so-bright-themselves', and thus the word 'stupid' has lost its credibility and power as a descriptive term. The word 'stupid' is overused, low brow and passé.

Ex.
Jim: Glenn! Did you just call me stupid !?!
Glenn: No, Jim. However, I most certainly implied that you are 'intellectually juvenile'. (said while smiling and in a nice tone)
-
Jim: OK! I thought you were calling me stupid, and, I was about to get very upset. Sorry.
Glenn: That's OK Jim. Most 'intellectually juvenile' people are blissfully unaware when a person calls them out on their errors, nonsense and lies, and they are generally oblivious when a sentient uses accurate, basic and descriptive words to describe 'intellectually juvenile' people to themselves.

Jim: You are a great friend, Glenn!
Glenn: I know. (smiling that smile he is well known for)

Get the pseudo-intellectual mug.A person or rather, the personality of a person, who likes to expose what people hides. One that carefully manages to analyze every meaning of someone's existence, exposing everything about him or her. It is composed with the words "Intellect" and "rape", this is because an intellectual rapist "rapes your mind", uncovering everything you have wether you like it or not.
In the Japanese visual novel "Umineko no Naku Koro Ni Chiru: Episode 5" we can find Furudo Erika as a perfect example as an Intellectual Rapist. She likes to solve riddle, meddle into other's affair and exposes everything they hide, not really caring about the effect this will have.
Normally, detectives fall in this category as they search for the truth, again exposing what others want to hide. For example, we can find even Sherlock Holmes as an intellectual rapist.
