A specific variety of intellectual; one whose intellectual pursuits (often the reading of modern philosophers) has left them cynical, overly serious, and had a negative impact on their ability to have fun and socialize. Most emo-lectuals (believing that they "get life" better than others) openly look down on people that are less intelligent or not as well versed in their particular field of interest (ie a particular art-style or said modern philosopher), making it difficult even for other intellectuals to enjoy their company and vice versa.
