F100 FLC CONCERNED WITH D10 CTLR BEHAVIOR TRYING TO AVOID WX.

Narrative

DEPARTED RWY 18L DFW. CONTACTED DEP CTL AND FLEW 185 DEG HDG UNTIL PASSING 4500 FT MSL; THEN A 260 DEG HDG. THERE WAS A RATHER HVY AREA OF PRECIP TO THE WNW OF FUZ VORTAC. AS THE FO AND I WERE CONTEMPLATING OUR NEXT MOVE; AN ACR REQUESTED DEV AROUND WX. THE CTLR REPLIED IN A VERY SARCASTIC TONE THAT NO ONE ELSE SEEMED TO NEED TO DEV 'BUT IF YOU FEEL YOU HAVE TO; I GUESS IT WOULD BE OK.' HE THEN ASKED ANOTHER ACFT IF THEY HAD RECEIVED THE CLRNC HE HAD GIVEN THEM; AND THE FLT REPLIED 'AFFIRMATIVE; WE ACKNOWLEDGED YOU.' THE CTLR SAID 'NO YOU DIDN'T;' OR 'I DIDN'T HEAR YOU.' AT THIS TIME WE WERE WITHIN 5 MI OF THE WX WE WERE HEADING TOWARDS. I ASKED THE CTLR FOR A TURN TO THE NE. 'UNABLE' WAS ALL WE HEARD. I TOLD HIM THAT THE WX TO OUR WNW WAS HVY ENOUGH THAT I DIDN'T WANT TO GO THROUGH IT. HE SAID THAT THE RIDES THROUGH THAT AREA WERE RPTED AS NOT BAD. I TOLD HIM 'I DON'T CARE WHAT EVERYBODY ELSE IS DOING; I DON'T WANT TO GO THROUGH IT.' HIS RESPONSE WAS 'FINE; THEN DO WHAT YOU WANT.' WE TURNED TO ABOUT A 030 DEG HDG AND TOLD THE CTLR THAT WE WOULD INTERCEPT THE FUZ 022 DEG RADIAL AND PROCEED WITH THE DEP. I GUESS THE POINT TO ALL OF THIS IS; WHY WAS THE CTLR SO SHORT WITH NOT ONLY OUR FLT BUT SEVERAL OTHERS? AND IF HE WAS UNABLE TO LET US DEV TO THE NE; THEN WHY THE 'DO WHATEVER YOU WANT' CLRNC? -- IF YOU CAN CALL IT THAT. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: RPTR BELIEVES THIS INCIDENT WAS ABNORMAL. HE WONDERS WHY THE UNNECESSARY CHALLENGE FOR WX DEV THOUGH. HE PLANS TO ADDRESS FUTURE INCIDENTS AT A HIGHER CORPORATE LEVEL.
