You interpreted the interview in the most charitable way, and the commenter in the least charitable way. Why do you think they are possibly abrasive? Why do you think asking about Friday night parties, drinking alcohol or swearing (happened to me) is a high-value signal?

Lets assume we are talking about a reasonable candidate with good social skills, and a higher-than-average tech skills (that would be a charitable interpretation of the original comment).
