I don't think anyone lol'd at 'holding Vaders leash' or 'Apology accepted'.

Vader and Tarkin were evil, they felt evil, they scared you. Hux is on par with Gru at this point.
Yeah but is he supposed to be that? To me if he had the composure of someone like Tarkin it wouldn't be as interesting. He's not a hardened military leader. He's a fanatical supporter of a terrorist regime. The people who remained after the death of the Empire as supporters would have only been the most fringe of them. Everyone else was just working for the man. I doubt many of them actually believed in what was actually happening. Snokes choices for leadership were probably pretty thin.
