What is jaunty?

Jaunty Fool is a title used to describe a person who has made an exhibition under several circumstances:
1. They got a seemingly random question wrong, of which the answer would be considered common knowledge to the instigator.
2. They fell for some sort of joke or prank.
3. An insult that is often used without context and has no deeper meaning than to mean "a wrongly confident person who has made a mistake".

Case 1-
Instigator: "How many air to air weapons can an F-35 JSF carry in it's enclosed weapons bay?"
Victim: "Uhhhhh, I dunno, 6?"
Instigator: "You jaunty fool, you absolute MORON, it's 4. Diaper man."

Case 2-
In this case, the instigator may hide an item belonging to the victim in plain sight. Once the victim has found said item, the instigator would call the victim a "jaunty fool" among other insults.

Case 3-
Instigator: "Angus, you jaunty fool!"
Victim: "?????"

What does "jaunty" mean?

A continuation of No Shave November and Don't Shave December. At this point, shaving one's mustache is allowed, as this is Jaunty "neckbeard" January. Failure to complete the No Shave November or Don't Shave December challenges due to the shaving of one's mustache does not disqualify a challenger for this event.

Steve: "Mike, you should really shave your neckbeard man. It's starting to look gross and I think there are some birds living in there."

Mike: "Nope. Not happening. It's Jaunty neckbeard January man. I have to complete the challenge, ty very much."

Steve: "Who the hell is Ty?"
