Cult of Intellect is a group of intellectuals.
Wow, you're in Cult of Intellect? You're so sexy

IntelligentCoDFanboy 

One of the many major trolls on YouTube. This one claims to lead an "army" to "enlighten" gamers about CoD and how it is "superior" to all other games. Despite his obvious trolling, he still grasps bait easily.
IntelligentCoDFanboy: "CoD is the biggest franchise in the world. It has innovated the FPS genre and everything involved in the genre as well. Other FPS such as Battlefield, Counter Strike, Halo and GTA copied CoD. They are CoD ripoffs and are not worthy of playing. CoD on the Xbox will have the best graphics and biggest performance of every game worldwide. It will be the most successful game with the best score and the biggest fanbase."

Pseudo-Intellectual Circle Jerk 

A gathering of people pretending that they are intelligent and congratulating each other for it.
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.

Intellectual Crush 

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.
He is so damn clever, funny, and quick; he is by far one of my top intellectual crushes.

intellectually juvenile

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)
