Although it may be considered as ironic, it is strictly speaking an example of condescension. It is obvious that the narrator considers himself superior to this character since the words imply that Mr. Gascoigne has a formatted thought that only replies on what is deemed fashionable to think by society’s standards. Therefore the correct answer is  A. condescending.
