Stan taking the “death” of Wax Stan way too seriously is one of my favorite jokes in the show. In all likelihood, it is just a joke about how egotistical Stanford Pines is.
But, if you want to hate yourself, here’s another way to look at this. Stan has someone (well, something) that looks exactly like him. He watches tv with Wax Stan. He cracks jokes at Wax Stan. He’s got pictures of himself with Wax Stan. Until Wax Stan is murdered, that is. What does Stan do? He buys a coffin. He hosts a memorial service. Perhaps, because this time around, Stan has a body to bury.
Goofy, egotistical old man? Yeah, probably. It’s a silly show after all.
Grieving twin staring into the face of the man who was taken from him thirty years ago? Well, why not?
Ah, remember when all these Stanley ideas were just grasping fanon?
OH
“Stan having a secret brother was the plan from the very beginning…and I think your mind might be a little blown by just how many clues and hints we planted pointing to this conclusion…Ever wondered why Stan was so distraught at his wax doppelgänger’s “death” in “Headhunters”?” –ALEX HIRSCH
Someone toss me a basketball because I need to celebrate this SLAM DUNK.
