Someone that enjoys themselves at the expense of others. Will usually find fault where there is none. Immature in nature, but without the tools to change. They will retaliate with ignorant remarks only to show their true colors. And finally, a "bottom feeder" will tell you their goal is unity and a better standard for their industry, yet their actions do nothing but the opposite.

As aviation professionals, as I use that term loosely, look at the problems we face today. Threads like this are not the solution, nor are the many who participate.
