sabotour

Dat one whiny/grumpy outing-participant who makes things miserable for both himself and everyone else in da walking-group. Da "growler" described in Maine author Leroy Dudley's "Chimney Pond Tales" book comes to mind as a classic example.

True story from last fall --- despite my careful map-drawing and diligent following of signs, I got temporarily mixed up while traversing unfamiliar roads to join about a half-dozen other middle-aged folks who were gonna hike a peaceful woods-trail to a lovely coastal inlet. Da group's guide had spoken wif me on da phone beforehand and thus knew dat I was super-interested in coming, however, and so he had gently asked everyone to wait a few more minutes till I came barreling into da trail-head's parking lot and apologetically sprinted over to join da group; I was super-grateful dat everyone was good-natured about my unforeseen tardiness, and therefore didn't view me as a sabotour!
