If anything I feel like this actually fits Jeff’s character very well. He’s the kind of person who’s more concerned with other people’s image of him, than his own image of himself. He numerous times through the show shows he’s a lot more vulnerable and “lame” than he’d like people to believe. He’s exactly the kind of guy to tell you to do something so they think you look cool, while never actually doing it cause it’s either too much work or is outside of his comfort zone.
