Man I don't even know. WHAT A QUESTION. It does feel a bit weird to him to be similar to someone else because he's usually done up so much he's a pretty unique character and the people that HAVE seen him without his shit basically just take him as he is

And the fact that it is a parent he's so similar to is sort of.... strange in a way he can't explain, but the honest reason behind it is because out of the circus group even though they HAD a Father (or a man they called Father), when it came to actually doing that role and giving a genuine fuck about all the kids and taking care of them and reaching out- that was actually a lot of things Joker did and continued to do whenever he could.

There's a lot of complicated feelings about the whole situation and a lot of them toxic as fuck, but he's kept them buried down, but needless to say it all ends up with parenthood being a weird subject for him

so basically sort of funny but a lot of weird and he doesn't want to bug Maka too much about looking like her dad so he's now doing his best to keep that in mind
