Nope. It's extremely douchey, but totally honest and not unfairly discriminatory in any way. It reflects an immature and pathetic obsession with "cultural fit" by people that mentally haven't outgrown the high school playground.

What makes me wonder about the author though is when they go off on the basic requirements. Those are not exceptional or excessive requirements.

Douchebags recruiting douchebags. It's only discriminatory in that it's unlikely to attract mentally stable grown-ups or women.

But since there are so many startups with the same attitude that aren't upfront about it (or, if you read between the lines, 50% of all job postings actually tell the same story), I welcome these clear warning signs.
