Conflicting Accounts
Lilly pointed out to me how one of my arguments was very incorrect. As a result, I realized my post creating a parallel to The Hurt Locker and Sophie's World are in direct contradiction with one another. The Hurt Locker post states that Jack's behavior is due to the fact that he has jaded himself by contact with a reality much different, with greater potential for adrenaline or other chemical rushes. The post from Sophie's world claims almost the polar opposite; that his behavior is due to a lens of youth, having maintained an appreciation for all things, that is usually seen in lack of experience. To clarify, I believe The Hurt Locker reference to be more accurate, as his eccentricity does seem to angle towards the extraordinary, finding the ordinary to be tedious.
