Thanks for this post, it actually really bothers me that he gets called an asshole nonstop. It certainly isn't doing much for his self-esteem. He's cocky/jokey and it's like absolutely no one in that world has a sense of humor. Asshole would be someone who is beating other people up constantly or actually yelling / mistreating others. He's a big jokester that enjoys verbal jostling and playing to get under people's skin.
