Tim Johnson (TV Tropes page) (Johnsonverse)

Timothy Daniel Johnson (born July 9, 1995) is the current CEO of Johnson Industries, and the owner of This Very Wiki. He has been the CEO of Johnson since December 30, 2009, when his father, Sheldon Johnson, Jr., retired to run for Governor of California, which, of course, became a success.

Tropes related to Tim Johnson

 * Adam Westing: On The Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad!, and South Park, along with Chloe.
 * As Himself: Tim has made various cameos in movies and TV shows.
 * Author Appeal: Stock car racing, locomotives, animation, tokusatsu, video games, the list goes on...
 * Berserk Button: Tim has several of those:
 * Do not say the name "Donald Trump" within earshot. He will go into a long rant about why he considers him an evil dictator.
 * If you say vaccines cause autism, you better have medical insurance. Seriously, Tim once put a man in the hospital because the latter said that very thing.
 * Also, do not insult his twin sister, his wife, or anyone in his circle of friends or his family.
 * Siding with SJWs will result in Tim ranting about how they're making humanity go down the toilet.
 * He hates quite a few of the tropes you'll find on This Very Wiki. Examples include Tsundere, The Unfair Sex, Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male, Liar Revealed, Barbaric Bully, Karma Houdini, Adults Are Useless, just to name a few. He goes out of his way to parody, subvert, invert, and defy these tropes, all the while invoking Reality Ensues.
 * Bias Steamroller: Despite his allegiance to the Democratic Party and his well-known crusades against Trump, Tim has criticized this trope. He has made it clear that while nothing positive about Trump could be said unless he does something Tim deems positive, he also said that nothing negative could be said about him either--it's his and his family and friends' job.
 * The Cameo: Makes cameo appearances on WBC or Johnson-owned series from time to time. Here's an incomplete list:
 * Tales from the Rails (2011)
 * Wheel of Fortune (40th Anniversary Special) (2015)
 * Catch Phrase: Several.
 * Cool Mask: During the COVID-19 pandemic, Tim has taken to wearing a jet-black mask.
 * Corpsing: Tim famously did this in a 2014 Fireside Chat skit. It was kept in at his request.
 * Creator Backlash:
 * Deadpan Snarker: ESPECIALLY on Fireside Chat, but also shown in interviews.
 * Happily Married: To Belle Armstrong.
 * Honest Corporate Executive: Perhaps the most honest of them all.
 * Let's Play: Does a series of those on his YouTube channel.
 * Memetic Badass:
 * Old Shame: Several.
 * Tim regrets having Bill Cosby appear on Fireside Chat in 2011, as he (like many others) didn't know about his sexual harassment, and has banned it from airing on any WBC-owned channel. The full episode shown on his YouTube channel has a thumbnail with the words "BANNED" on a red stamp, with an introduction by Tim.
 * Tim despises The Cool Adventures of Chocodile, calling it "a once-unreachable low until the modern seasons of Family Guy happened to television".
 * On another note, he also LOATHES the seventh to eighteenth seasons of Family Guy, famously going on a 10 minute-long rant about it in a 2019 Fireside Chat episode.
 * Playing Against Type:
 * Playing Gertrude: His character in Grand Theft Auto VI is 26 years old. At the time the game was produced, Tim was 22-24.
 * Political Correctness Gone Mad: Tim absolutely LOATHES this trope, to the point of centering a series of Fireside Chat skits around deconstructing this trope. He has even gone so far as to use his influence to dissuade rival companies from doing things he deems politically correct.
 * Rail Enthusiast: Tim LOVES trains. So much that he considers Continental Rail his pride and joy. He also took Amtrak trips regularly for meetings in different states, so much that Amtrak partially renamed its San Jose station the "Johnson-Diridon Station" in his honor in 2013.
 * Red Oni, Blue Oni:
 * Self-Depreciation:
 * Sesame Street Cred:
 * Shown Their Work: Since the 22nd season of Thomas & Friends, Tim has been doing this, particularly after he took over as the Head Writer in Season 24.
 * Stop-Motion:
 * What Could Have Been: Tim wanted to collaborate with Michael Jackson on a song. Due to Author Existence Failure on the latter's part, however, this never happened.
 * Willing Suspension of Disbelief:

YMMV

 * Broken Base: Oy.
 * His disdain for Trump.
