Oh my gosh, oh my gosh it’s happening. Tim Misny is breaking containment.
For context, I’ve lived in Ohio all my life and spent three years living in Cleveland for university (which sometimes had photoshopped tim minsy jokes in different departments!). So, inevitably I saw many, many Tim Misny ads while living there. But, this doesn’t even cover half of the utter insanity of Mr Misny Esquire. No, the man makes ‘em pay far beyond the realms of menacing billboards invoking eldritch terror upon the freeway.
Tim Misny is northern Ohio's eldritch god, plague and menace. Or at least the real life Saul Goodman.
The completely bonkers sign of him menacingly raising his eyebrows is rather new- but before that, clevelanders were graced with the absolute beauty of Tim Misny tv and internet ads. Please let me tell you about the Tim Misny Thriller Parody . Please, it's been consuming my brain for years and no one believes me.
This is an actual advertisement for a personal industry lawyer made in 2010. A young couple enters Misnyland (yes, an actual place that is Tim Misny’s residence and also a resort(???) for the general public. I do not know anybody who has gone there, but it is advertised on his site) and are chased by clowns, zombies and werewolves etc etc. But at the end of the music video (with lyrics changed to match the divinity of Tim Misny Esquire) the monsters suddenly all turn into Tim Misny, fit with horrifying laminated Tim Misny Masks with suits to match. This is somehow more terrifying than the very silly autotune that replaces michael jackson.
Actual Tim Misny also appears in the crowd of dopple-Misnys and shows us his true form which never appears on his billboards for some reason???
There is also a Tim Misny Commercial which the very thought of Tim Misny plagues the personification of Insurance Companies with nightmares and has honestly some of the spookiest synth tones and sound design in a commercial I have ever seen? Very surreal, very nightmarish, absolute terror in the words “And this time- he really made me pay”
There is also the gosh dang Tim Misny merch shop which just speaks for itself. Some of my favourites being the Tim Minsy clock and the the official Tim Misny body pillow (no i am not lying look at it please)
Then there is also the moment where he went on a local comedians show and told his audience to call him and that he would trick your enemy into falling in love with him and then on their wedding day he would leave them at the altar while also simultaneously burning their house down.
There is so much more craziness to this man besides his admittedly absolutely bonkers bill-boards. I haven't even really touched the surface of Misnyness- just what an absolute dude. It honestly shocks me that people out of the state haven't really heard of him- the guys been active in his goofiness since the 1970s. I'm pretty sure he is immortal and is just a personal injury lawyer because he thought it would be funny.
