It may be a reaction to apparent age, he had a very isolated upbringing.

ie: his innocence level seems higher than most.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Was he raised in the wild by Muppets? Because that's the impression I'm getting from how intensely *everything* must be reacted to.

Mark just posted his predictions for Buffy S7 and Angel S4. I think he may finally be getting a feel for how things work Josswise. Although he did put down:
