Academics "highly intellectual"?

Haha. No-no. They've just garnered knowledge on a topic. The highly intellectual people are paid much more outside of an institution because they can do stuff with that knowledge.

fam you coulda just quoted Pierre Choderlos de Laclos and said: "Like most intellectuals he is intensely stupid."

IDK, all this "quoting other people's work" business seems mighty intellectual to me. Really smart people are outside of academia, where they think of smart stuff all on their own. /s
