disrespectful adjective

Era evidente que con él se lo pasaba de fábula, que se divertía, que lo admiraba, quizá no tanto por su cine —a Rico le traía sin cuidado el cine, un arte inventado demasiado tarde, en lo que para él era un siglo de decadencia abominable— cuanto por su personalidad y por una afinidad de caracteres que los llevaba a espolearse mutuamente y a congeniar: los dos, cada uno a su modo, tendían a ser arrogantes y faltones y poseían un sentido agudo del humor que no todo el mundo sabía captar.
He clearly enjoyed Muriel’s company enormously and admired him too, perhaps not so much for his films – Rico did not care for the cinema, an art invented far too late and in what, for him, was a hideously decadent century – but for his personality and because of an affinity of character that meant they sparked each other off and generally got on like a house on fire: they both, each in his own way, tended to be arrogant and disrespectful and had a sharp sense of humour that not everyone understood.
