Randy always wants to talk about Plato. It seems like he doesn't know much about anything else (or Plato for that matter). He's such a quasi-intellectual.

quasi- intellectual

A person who is sort of intelligent- literal word meaning.

Could be easily confused with pseudo- intellectual or intelligence, which is someone who acts like they know a lot when actually they know very little or nothing at all . Much like tree pipers definition for quasi intellectual. A pseudo intellectual could very likely be quasi intelligent.
