Some ( not all) Trombonists ( tromboner?) deserve to be bashed. I work with a lot of freelance players and some are as true to the stereotype as can be. I work with a big band that has a steady stream of them coming in and out and its always amusing. One brought his tuxedo to the gig in a plastic grocery bag. One who will remain nameless* has been a thorn in the side of just about everyone he encounters: he ruined a live video shoot by standing up after a tune and saying" I don't think that was very good, can we do another?" on camera! We all were told, one runthrough, no second takes. I have dozens of embarassing stories about him, accumulated over the years. He's also a teacher in my school district and has singlehandedly killed the music program in my district. Schools don't want him back, union says you can't fire him for being an a$$hole, so the schools excess the whole music program just to get rid of him. He's such an idiot that his website doesn't have a link for email, just a phone number.
While we're on the subject:
How can you tell the trombone players kids in the playground?
They can use the slide, but they just can't swing
