To answer the question of how I define elitist, in this context I define it by
1 - Somebody who thinks they are better than someone else on the basis of their hobby
2 - Somebody who wants to show off their knowledge in a certain area to belittle someone else
3 - Somebody who looks down on people who are less knowledgable/skilled than them.
4 - Somebody who does things/buys things ONLY because they are obscure (ie - someone who eats an expensive home made bread rather than a cheap one from a bakery NOT because they like it better, but because they think its fashionable/trendy/etc)
