Wierd things to get people backs up?? I could come out with some contraversial comments just to stir things up (both on the Net & in real life). It might be meant in humour (some of the things I say are to spot the difference between those who get the joke & those who don't - BTW most people on here do get the jokes!!). I don't know the guy, so not sure what you mean, but sometimes you should keep an open mind. Some of the most screwed up & nastiest people I've come across are the seemingly outwardly normal & likeable ones, while other people who on the surface might not seem so pleasant or likeable are the ones who will stand by you when the chips are down.
Also some people do it as a protectionist thing, people have been obnoxious to them, so they freak them out to make them stay away from them. Perhaps he thought you were open minded & intelligent enough to see through that & accept him for who he was???
