Bob was like that. A real asshole when it came to reading into things. He liked to wrap things up into neat little packages that implied the world.

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker criticises Bob for over-interpreting everything. Bob liked to compress messy experience into tidy, self-contained conclusions, as though each small thing summed up the whole world. The complaint is blunt and irritated, aimed at a habit of finding neat meaning where none needs to be forced.
