To play devil's advocate, perhaps he thinks he's being playful? Like, banter or something. At least, that's my experience when I have confronted ex-colleague about the same behaviours. Then again, those types are often very good at feigning ignorance ๐คทโโ๏ธ
On the other hand, it isn't funny if only he is laughing y'know. For something to be genuinely funny, the subject also has to find it funny. Otherwise it's bullying.
