Why did The Joker give multiple reasons as to how he got his scars to his victims? I believe he did this because The Joker was so sane that he was insane. I truly believe he enjoyed striking fear into his victims so much before he killed them that by having a new story every time he could enjoy new and different reactions. Like he says in the movie, he savors the little emotions of his victims before he kills them. Plus, from the writing and character development standpoint, I believe the character not having an explained origin gave him a level of mystery and depth that could not have been achieved otherwise. This is why I think the less you know about a character, the more interesting they are.
