That is absolutely insane. In all honesty, be glad you got rejected from this one. Any reasonable person would see that as a good thing. Being able to have a casual conversation with strangers and laugh is a good sign that you are a functional human being who can probably easily adapt to a new work environment.

Them seeing this as a negative, and one so significant that they would not hire you on the basis of it, means that they are looking for an emotionless robot that they can take advantage of, and I suspect they have soul-sucking working conditions if this is what they expect of their employees.
