He sounds like maybe he thinks he's being clever or eccentric, or something. But what a jerk. What do you need the reference for? Is is vital that he write it? Do you have other similar experiences that would also work?
Perhaps you could try to give him a taste of his own medicine. I know one of the psychologists where I work is really rude and impatient. We tell him to keep his shorts on, we'll be down when we're ready, and not before! I don't recommend that approach with everyone, but this guy seems to respect it. Maybe your supervisor also would respond to a similar tack?
good luck,
