Every time she says or does something I get the feeling she lived her entire life in a Truman show populated by robots until aunt may pulled her out of it

    Yeah. It’s interesting how Spidey banter-like her speech is.

    That said, I’m not entirely sure whether this is due to of MJ trying to be like Spider-Man, Spider-Man trying to be like MJ, or lack of range on the part of the writers.

    I recall that Spider-Man’s banter does pre-date MJ’s introduction, if not by much.

    I think that. After a bunch of failed Spider-Man girlfriends, they wanted someone who more clearly fits with Spider-Man’s life, and wanted her to make a strong impact for fans - so she’s a bit over-written.
