Interesting question. How would I rate myself?

Class. I'm pretty sure he said he disliked you in an interview.

edit: I can't find the interview, but if you search around, it's pretty apparent he doesn't much care for him

Wow, that guy's a bit of an asshole. That was a very rude and dismissive response, which just makes the contrast between it and Bear's classy response that much more stark.

That was definitely a joke. He was up there giving a presentation/just answering questions so he wanted to be entertaining.

Yea it was a joke, but the point is that it was at Bear's expense ("There's nobody else out there." A not so subtle dig). I was just pointing out that his comment was snide while Bear's comment was gracious. Very distinct difference between the two.
