Default Overplaying an Overpair?

Villain is a LAG. Results were wierd.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (7 handed) converter

CO ($31.55)
Button ($116.50)
SB ($162.19)
Hero ($115.82)
UTG ($98)
MP1 ($93.35)
MP2 ($147.46)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.50.
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to $15</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Hero calls $14.

Flop: ($30.50) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets $1</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $24</font>, MP2 calls $23.

Turn: ($78.50) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero pushes, Villain almost runs the time out and calls.

Final Pot: $155.32

Wtf is he doing with that flop bet?

I would usually reraise this big preflop, especially against a LAG. I'd make it like 45/50$ to go. Otherwise looks good. I think the big raise and then the push on the turn after his weak bet will convince him that you're bluffing, so he'll call you with a lot here.

Standard. I generally lead the flop though, or check/raise for more.

Ok good. When he turned over AA i felt like a donk but vs. this type of opponent (who is raising 15xBB preflop with all sorts of [censored]) my line is good. I stacked him off twice later using this same line with an overpair and a set.

This LAG is tricky. His huge overbet makes it look like he just wants to take down the pot, but in actuality he wants a call, no? Then his $1 bet on the flop after the huge bet is just asking you to reraise big, once you do he gets paid off.
