Canned Laughter
Canned Laughter is the key ingredient to any sitcom which cannot afford a live audience, or comedic value and thus is bought on a regular basis from all television and film industry supermarkets. This tin is meant to be the official 'dumb audience' mascot, for it is known that not even the General Public can tell when they are supposed to laugh.
Sometimes, TST Chat is supplied with canned laughter to express to the above member that they have just made a joke which isn't funny whatsoever and consequently ends in a Kick or a humiliation conga by other members, who can make an even better joke. At times canned laughter is even in stock in the Forums, typically whenever humourless noobs create posts and fail miserably to say anything worthwhile.
Canned Laughter is currently situated in the SFX aisle of any TV/Film shop, next to the Canned Laughter - Sarcasm, Canned Boos and Canned Wolf Whistles.
