I wonder if we could create a short technical description of what a pseudo-intellectual is. It would have to include the masturbatory misuse of language which isn't used to elucidate but to obfuscate, to expand the negligible beyond all reason in order to create the illusion of substance, and the equally auto-erotic act of ascribing transcendent meaning to trivial phenomena, ultimately constructing a maze out of obscurantist ramblings in which the cognitively deficient narcissist and often the architect himself, are snared by their own ego.
