WIA nails it again.
The idea is to call him out on his bullshit in a non-emotional, non-confrontational manner.
My usual reply is 'Why are you being so passive-aggressive dude? Are you scared to say what you really want to say?'.
In your situation, I'd do one of the following:
Go playful, but mess with him:
a) 'Thanks for the reminder man. Do you have a little journal where you write about my life? Because I lost my spare keys yesterday and you might have it written down on your little diary.'
or go verbally aggressive, but say it in an impassioned tone:
b)'Why are trying to put me down? Do you think I forgot I got laid off? or do you think [chick's name] will think you're sexy for doing that?'
And demand an answer. He'll try and laugh it off, but just tell him to answer to question or stop laughing and talking.
I tend to go with option B.
Passive-aggressiveness is for the fearful and insecure. If you show him that you won't put up with his girly bullshit, he will kiss your ass for the rest of the day. Just don't forgive him for it.
