Narrative:

Air carrier #1 XXX, sep/xa/99. While being vectored to intercept ILS runway 35L, ATC made 2 calls for air carrier #2 xxy. We disregarded the calls. ATC corrected mistake, clarified air carrier #1 XXX and apologized. We had already notified approach of our intention to execute 'autoland' into den. A different (aggressive) controller took over and directed us to make 90 degree turn to intercept localizer within 1/2 mi. We hesitated on our reply, due to our need for a 30-40 degree intercept in order to execute autoland. Argumentative controller canceled vector, issued 270 degree heading and informed us that we had missed our intercept and were now 'number last' for approach. After numerous vectors, and our reminder that we require a proper intercept and his reply 'oh, you'll get it' sarcastically, we intercepted the localizer. The initial controller returned, cleared us for ILS runway 35L and advised us to contact tower. Our readback was 'cleared for ILS runway 35L contact tower at dymon.' argumentative controller returned and stated that we were 'wrong again, contact tower now and call TRACON upon landing.' the captain asked for his name and his reply was, 'I don't have time for your questions!'
