To be fair, he was experiencing severe insomnia when he was first writing and producing songs.

[@wieldylattice3015]

I don’t think that’s fair. First of all if you take some more modern stuff, say Event Horizon, The Thing, The Mist, basically any good horror movie from the past 40 years, they’re still terrifying without the soundtrack. If you remove the soundtrack from a video game, it’s not AS fun but it’s still fun. The entire, pure purpose of a laugh track is to use psychology to trick the audience into laughing at a joke regardless of the quality, and while soundtracks can have similar effect, soundtracks must have effort put into them, whereas laugh tracks can be bought as stock sfx and don’t add soul, they’re only there for that little psychological effect. Truthfully not comedies should be using laugh tracks, and removing the laugh tracks would be a good thing as that allows us to consider the quality of the humor without the confirmation bias

I see some animals like squirrels and dogs basically every day but get excited to see them because I like them.
