You have to be a political thinker to be classed as an intellectual
An intellectual is a person who engages in critical thinking, research, and reflection about the reality of society, and proposes solutions for the normative problems of society, and thus he or she gains authority as a public intellectual.[1][2] Coming from the world of culture, either as a creator or as a mediator, the intellectual participates in politics, either to defend a concrete proposition or to denounce an injustice, usually by producing or by extending an ideology, and by defending a system of values.[3]
Liking PG Wodehouse doesn't count.

Lol... My comment was of course slightly tongue-in-cheek, although the basic premise still stands: much of this type of stuff attracts horrendous snobs, and often the most haughty and boorish type, whom I abhor. Not saying anyone here comes into that category, though.
Let's just say, however, that a night out with a load of pretentious 'arty-farties', fawning over the 'literary genius' of Wodehouse, etc, would hold about as much appeal as having to sit through an entire day's content of the Parliament Channel!!
An instant cure for insomniacs....

Indeed.. its not any worse than some threads Ive read on internet...
I love Wodehouse actually... his shorts are super value.
In your opinion, perhaps. Is the likes of this meant to be funny:
After a minute in, my eyes glazed over with boredom, especially with his 'poncy' affected voice... Sorry, just not my thang. Give me some good Scottish comedies, like this, any day:
Now, *THAT* is fukkin funny!! :lol: :lol:
