Tim’s take
He treats mental illness as pervasive and ignored, citing his grandfather's breakdown and his mother's institutionalization as proof nobody intervenes in time 24:11 54:20. He also uses it as a blanket explanation for how strange people have become, from the elevator kid to the man endlessly repeating his Rolling Stones story at the grocery store 5:33 0:00. Otherwise it's just a punchline for anything baffling, whether a Long Island squatter or a stranger's tweet 31:17 31:39.
