Meh, I just don’t think it’s very professional to just start into a checklist without it being called for. Atleast pimp the Captain for it. Yes the Captain talked to him and it’s not the first time I’ve seen it happen. Point is, quit being in a damn rush people. I love how all the young/newly hired people are getting butt hurt about this.

Back in the day, we were more formal: 
F/O: “May it please Your Airworthiness...the checklist awaits.”
CA: “Very good, your Airmanship...let it be done.”
F/A: “Two sugars and one cream, Sir?”
CA: “Make it so, Most Excellent Stewardess.”

Personally I gave zero F's, tell me what you want and I'll do it.
In your case, might I suggest you mention to your FOs how you want it done?

Instead of "taxi check" .. "what did Ground tell us to do" "continue" "where's Southwest, why's he get to go in front" "continue" "what Rj?" "deferred" "the winds did what?" "you type" "after delayed start" "checklist complete" :-)
Reduced gate latency, taxi time, fewer errors and you have something to do during that awkward 5 minutes sitting there waiting for other airplanes to depart, when you're not supposed to be talking about (union politics/bids/overnights/everyone else's landings). Must just be me.
