Well, he's a 35-year-old man who lacks all the markers of fairydom - small size, grace, delicate features - and yet insists on dressing and acting in accordance with a belief that he is a fairy. That's not too different from the things some people do as deliberate nightmare fuel; look up pictures of Man-Faye or Sailor Bubba for examples. Those are cosplayers who are aware of the effect that they're having, so they don't cause second-hand embarrassment, but Tingle really thinks he's a fairy.

Some people are tremendously entertained by second-hand embarrassment but some people find it excruciating. (I fall in the latter camp, personally.) Now, since Tingle lives in a world where a lot of crazy shit goes on, I like to think that his delusion isn't quite as obviously wrong as it would be in our world - his world has fairies; it has reincarnation; he's just obviously canonically wrong about he himself being one - but in our world, he'd be one of these fruitcakes who talk about soulbonds and marrying anime characters on the astral plane. When's the last time you wanted to spend time with someone like that? Yeah, exactly.
