Stiles wants the girl Jackson had wrapped around his finger despite the crap he's pulled and how he's treated at her times. That's bound to be affecting some of Stiles' ability to cast an opinion like that with true impartiality. And Jackson's kind of quick on the uptake, so chances are he's aware of that, and to someone like him, that's likely to be amusing to him, which should mitigate some of the anger. And truth is Stiles wasn't lying when he stated certain things about Jackson and you could tell Jackson knew it, the guy is opportunistic, selfish, and arrogant...he was willing to blow Scott's cover last season, go after his girl, and eventually did rat Scott out to the hunters. And as Stiles mentioned, Jackson helped Scott and Derek so Derek would give him the bite...that was all Jackson, Kanima-free. If the roles were reversed, Stiles would be pissed to a point, but not surprised. They both are intelligent, fairly strategic, outcome oriented thinkers, only difference is Jackson is a spoiled (albeit damaged) brat, he might have a good quality or two, which is why Scott wants to help him, but Jackson places those traits to the wayside to get what he wants, and does so by choice.
