One time in a group I wanted out of because of a problem player, he tried to steal a critical piece of gear from my character while I was sleeping. Before I could say anything he started with a “What, it’s what my character would do!” I told him “Well MY character would kill anyone caught stealing from him with his very large axe, so good luck!” Weirdly he didn’t think that was as funny.

The "that's what my character would do" thing really sucks. If the other players don't think it's funny, and the DM doesn't think it's funny and often not even the player themselves think it's funny (or replace funny with any other measure of worthwhileness), then why are they doing it? It's not like the character is a living being that demands accuracy.
