Too few people wave, but sneering after losing is definitely uncalled for, especially after losing.

I don't know about the use of "contents" here; a kilt barely covers, never mind contains. Although I suppose if one has the lungs to play a bagpipe, one has the aerobic capacity to climb on a single-speed.
