I think the closest word to describe Mario would be a hypocrite, defined as one whose actions belie their professed beliefs. Note that hypocrite is a fairly derogatory term in modern parlance - but then, it's hard to describe the behavior you're talking about in positive terms. Still, if you were looking for a more "oh, well, there he goes again!" type of noun (i.e. "being silly" rather than "betraying his beliefs"), hypocrite is probably too strong/negative a term.
