Ya know…. “commercial”!
Because, you know, it’s not classified as a “shizzz and grins” airport! Its COMMERCIAL!

The world revolves around him, see? He's an airline Captain. Damn FO can't even do the radios right.

I’d like to see your colleague fly to Daytona over a holiday weekend.

I would. The voice at the beginning is different from the voice arguing. Logic would dictate voice who advised holding short initially was the FO. Also, let's face it. Who's more likely to go unhinged on the microphone, an FO or a CA?

Damn.
I guess it wouldn't work on the flight deck but I sure love zoomies in a dog. Even my eldest, at nearly 14, occasionally enjoys them and they are wonderful to behold.

I’ve told a copilot or two to ‘settle’ like a dog with the zoomies.

I'm probably commenting ironically...
I can count on both hands of the disgruntled captains that are 3 months from retirement and just looking for a reason to argue...cause you know...life.
FWIW, I've flown with 33 captains this year, 26 of them had fewer that 2 years left (youngest was 51) most are chill...some are angered if the sun is too bright...

The last one I flew with had a 10 minute long safety brief, including one about PEDs and sterile cockpit and intentional noncompliance. At cruise, he whips out a personal iPad and starts playing some game, while streaming music to his headset. Good talk, skipper.

I HAVE STRONG OPINIONS ABOUT AUTOMOTIVE LIGHTING!
I liked the controller's response; it was one of the two best options:
<AAL 2139> "THIS IS ARE COMMERCIAL AIRPORT!"
<Tower> "*something-something about planning and communication*, UNACCEPTABLE."
And then nobody goes for another round. Everyone had their say and was heard and things continued; it's almost civilized.
The other best option would have been to just disregard the non-operational words, like a referee in a youth sports league when a colicky parent/coach is sermonizing on all the injustices in the world.
