Dear Timmy!

you could win a $50 gift cert! Have you ever wondered how Wookies make love? Or how to say 'Battlestar Galactica' in Klingon? Or maybe you just had a burning question about what really exists at our planet's core? Well you no longer need to ponder those deep subjects in lonely solitude. How about seeing what our worldly and wise mascot, Timmy, has to say on the subject? It may be surprising, but Timmy has advanced degrees in Philosophy, English Literature, Physics, and Turf Management, so he can take anything you can throw at him. If Timmy chooses to answer your question, you will be rewarded with a $50 ThinkGeek gift certificate! How can you lose?

The Basics
  • Send Timmy a question or issue that you would like his opinion on. Be creative!
  • Don't send customer service questions. Timmy simply can't answer CS questions. Please use our normal Customer Service Contact page for that.
  • Use a descriptive subject line and your question will be more likely to be answered.
  • May the force be with you.

Frequently Asked Questions about asking questions!
  • Dear Timmy? What is Dear Timmy?
    Dear Timmy is a forum for posing questions to Timmy, the Monkey. Questions and answers are published for information and discussion purposes only. Such information is not a substitute for professional advice from an adviser familiar with the particular situation. The content of Timmy's answers are his own personal opinions and do not represent the views of ThinkGeek, Inc. ("ThinkGeek") in any way. In addition, Timmy's thoughts and opinions often change, with his answers intended only to be a snapshot of his thoughts and opinions at the moment he is responding to questions, and not expected to reflect his current thoughts and opinions. ThinkGeek does not guarantee the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of any information provided in the Dear Timmy forum.
  • Um... ok. In English this time?
    Dear Timmy is for fun. Timmy's advice isn't real. Timmy does not answer customer service questions. Take it all with a grain of salt.
  • Timmy, when will I know if you picked my question !?!?!
    Glad you asked. Unfortunately you will only hear back from us IF we decide to use your question. And that could be anywhere from a few days to several months depending on various circumstances, like melting polar ice caps and current memory pricing.
  • ThinkGeek, nobody is answering my question!
    Due to the volume of suggestions we receive, we are unable to respond to every email. We will contact you if we pick your question - otherwise, ask your psychiatrist! He probably can help.
  • If you choose my question, how long will it be before I get my gift certificate?
    Typically this will happen within 30-60 days. However, we might pick your question and not publish the answer right away. In this case, you will get paid when we actually publish your question and answer.
