Observations from Material
Hmm. Sometimes I think Joss and company might be trying to tell us something.
from Crystal: "Wash looked over the flight yoke, into the familiar black of space. The dash was void of dinosaurs, making it easy. You put dinosaurs up there - /one time/ - and it was all anyone wanted to talk about. It was much the same with flowered shirts..."
Perhaps... oversimplification of the character. I know that maybe I've done it.

Perhaps. Although I do believe the show's original writers, costumers and set dressers would have to plead guilty as well. Because Wash's dinosaurs *definitely* made more than one appearance...in the pilot and in the movie, at the very least. Also, Wash wore loud shirts in more than one episode, although I couldn't name the specific instances without watching the episodes again. They might not have all been flowered Hawaiian shirts.
It's a judgment call...how much of that is over-simplification of character -- and how much of it *is* the character?

Maybe Wash himself doesn't realize how often he dresses in crazy shirts or maybe seems a little bit childish or clownish to people. Maybe to a degree Wash takes himself more seriously than others do - although he knows he's a funny guy too.
I mean in Float Out Wash tries to talk to his disgruntled friend using a T-rex, if I recall.
