It is puzzling and interesting group but not an insult by no means.
It is long known and proteged group of the "old farts" and He is very
proud of his "Bag of Winds"
 As he (or any of the old farts) all are told in the tales of the
Bards.  This is part of Bjornborgs tales!  As it should be!

I think that person that stated that this was disrepectful should listen
to the tale and understand that this is part of the art of bardic
history. You can find all sorts of references.

Like this German Riddle:
Hubber-de-bubber-de, unnichem bank,
Hubber-de-bubber-de, owwichen bank,
siss kenn mann im ganse land,
Das Hubbber-de-bubber fange kann. (En Fatz)

Hubber-de-bubber-de, under the bench,
Hubber-de-bubber-de, over the bench,
There is on man in all the land 
Can catch Hubbber-de-bubber again. (A Fart)

 "May the Bards find happiness thru the roads well traveled and find a
welcome hearts and happy laughter where ever tell their tales"
