The flashy, braggart type is who they meant is boring, I believe. They are not being hypocritical in my opinion as the flashy, braggart person is uninterested in talking about anything but their interest while GP doesn't want to hear them brag about it. It's not a lack of interest in the subject, it's the fact that the subject isn't the point, it's the "look at how good I am at $subject" that the braggart is worried about.
