Dansish:
Opkaldt efter en legendarisk skikkelse fra dansk popkultur i 1960’erne, ved navn Tim Gerhke, som ofte nævnes i gamle historier om ungdomsradio, smådrama og tidlig teen-attitude. Ifølge fortællingerne blev han kendt for sine syleskarpe kommentarer, sit evige halvfornærmede tonefald og sin evne til at være både sur og dobbeltmoralsk på samme tid.
Det var netop hans ikoniske opførsel, der siges at have givet oprindelsen til slangordet “Timsk”.

Named after a legendary figure from Danish pop culture in the 1960s, known as Tim Gerhke, who is often mentioned in old stories about youth radio, petty drama, and early teen attitude. According to the tales, he became known for his razor-sharp remarks, his constantly half-offended tone, and his ability to be both annoyed and slightly hypocritical at the same time.
It was his iconic behavior that is said to have inspired the slang term “Timsk.”
