Not gonna defend any harassment but this one's just nitpicking. He made a joke. I see him as the real life version of Erlich Bachman or Russ Hanneman from Silicon Valley. He is inappropriate, which is what makes him more likable (to some people).

Awful lot of defensive green names popping up in this thread. Upstream there's one with obscure knowledge of the PR industry.

Just a coincidence though, right?
