The author's manner is overbearing.

Recently on The Five, Greg Gutfeld identified the dialect of certain delicate, male personalities in media -- he called it "uptalk". And there's a definition for it:

uptalk: noun - a manner of speaking in which declarative sentences are uttered with rising intonation at the end, as if they were questions.

Gutfeld got that from Seinfeld. Women from Texas uptalk a lot.
