comment |
Downer Ending: Tim is flattened by the giant letter from OmniCorp's sign. Played for Laughs, though, since the credits roll right before the letter hits him. And technically it's a letter O, so it's possible the writers gave themselves an out in case the show was revived. |

Police Are Useless |
| | The Life & Times of Tim / int_59907e4f |
comment |
Police Are Useless: Tim is asked to finger the bum who (fake) raped him out of a Police Lineup in "Rodney's Bachelor Party". The officer gets one of the bums to get naked and pretend to rape Tim to see if it'll jog his memory. In "Unjustly Neglected Drama", a cop guarding a crime scene says he won't say what happened, and then tells Tim and Stu exactly what happened. Right after that, Tim becomes a suspect for the murder for a total non-reason and the police refuse to believe his alibi (being at a play) over the actual murderer's ("I was at the laundromat. There are the quarters I didn't use"). |

Kick Them While They Are Down |
| | The Life & Times of Tim / int_7ab81664 |
comment |
Kick Them While They Are Down: In "The Sausage Salesman", Tim and Amy cooperatively lie to her father, Dick, to spite him over all the flak he gives Tim for being unemployed. The lies lead to Dick quitting his job, nullifying his pension and leaving him with no alternatives. Tim points out that it was Amy's lie that was the tipping point in the situation, and she dejectedly admits that she "fucked up". |

Be as Unhelpful as Possible: In "Unjustly Neglected Drama", an actor is interrogated in an attempt to have Tim's alibi corroborated. While his reply actually applies as an answer, the fact that he is only repeating lines from a play in an increasingly hammy manner annoys both Tim and the detective. |

NiceToTheWaiter |
| | The Life & Times of Tim / int_a39d6056 |
comment |
Nice to the Waiter: While pumping himself up in "London Calling", Tim accidentally puts down the restroom attendant at a high-end restaurant and forgets to tip him for the cologne, mint, and condoms Tim is forced to take. When Tim goes to the bathroom a second time and the attendant complains about the lack of a tip, Tim points out that the position of restroom attendant is incredibly inessential. The aftermath, of course, ruins Tim's good standing with the CEO of Omnicorp's main branch. Comes up again in "Tim's Hair Looks Amazing", where a nearby Chinese restaurant and Tim's usual barbershop despise him for his paltry tips and habit of vocally asserting that minor jobs like cab driver and shampoo girl are not real careers. |

Limited Animation |
| | The Life & Times of Tim / int_e034faef |
comment |
Limited Animation: It improves in this regard slightly from the second season on, but there are almost never any transitional frames between poses and characters often stand still at length only moving their mouths. |

Gonk: Debbie, as mentioned previously. Pretty much all the cast, really. The women have bizarrely proportioned figures, the men are all excessively hairy, and everyone has a distorted face. |

Suspiciously Specific Denial: In "The Girl Scout Incident", Tim advises his Boy Scouts to tell their parents that they got $1050 each by selling an absurd amount of pinecones—not by selling fake Louis Vuitton handbags on Canal Street. "Tim and the Elephant": |

Double Standard: Rape, Male on Male |
| | The Life & Times of Tim / int_ecd78a30 |
comment |
Double Standard: Rape, Male on Male: Rodney's story about Tim's escapade at the former's bachelor party in "Rodney's Bachelor Party" turns out to be that Tim was raped behind a dumpster by a bum. Everyone in-universe treats the rape pretty seriously (although ineptly), with the exception of Marie in HR, who has the nerve to crack bum-rape jokes. |

Digging Yourself Deeper |
| | The Life & Times of Tim / int_f09afb0 |
comment |
While pumping himself up in "London Calling", Tim accidentally puts down the restroom attendant at a high-end restaurant and forgets to tip him for the cologne, mint, and condoms Tim is forced to take. When Tim goes to the bathroom a second time and the attendant complains about the lack of a tip, Tim points out that the position of restroom attendant is incredibly inessential. The aftermath, of course, ruins Tim's good standing with the CEO of Omnicorp's main branch. |

TV Telephone Etiquette: In "Tim's Hair Looks Amazing", Tim bungles a call from a prospective employer by hanging up when he thinks the conversation is over. After a pause, the caller continues speaking, not realizing that he's hung up. |
