And, IMHO, one that's not unique to first (or any other) class. Rude behavior is rude behavior wherever one finds it. Being in the front cabin on a commercial flight provides more space, better food and usually more frequent visitations from the cabin crews. It is neither a license to behave boorishly nor a guarantee that one will avoid the boorish behavior of others.
