I think it is ashame that this FA treated you the way that he did. Unforunately, as an airline employee, I have witnessed fellow co-workers needlesly get into it with other passengers, for no reason. I would tend to agree with some of the others, regarding there being more to this story, if it weren't that even just today, I witnessed co-worker get into it with a passenger, becoming quite rude, and finally yelling for the manager, on the other side of the airport, to come over. This all because the passenger didn't receive his bag. The passenger was aggrevated, but not being rude, or irate, by any means.
It sounds like the FA may have taken your question regarding when the flight would be leaving, as sarcastic, in referencing the guy who had just been asked, by the FA, to sit down. He probably didn't realize it was a legit question, and thought you were trying to stir up some trouble. I doubt that was your intent, but it seems that is how the FA may have taken it.
