Which "other" group members?  I see: if you and *one* other list member 
thinks a fun word describing boors and their invidious behavior is boorish, 
it then must be. By your reasoning, it is ill-mannered to poke fun at those 
who think more highly of themselves because they own this or that camera? 
You're right: those who presume themselves to have the same attributes as 
their technologically muscle bound cameras ought to be pitied, not scorned.
