Cringe Daddy
GQ US|December 2023 - January 2024
Ever since he burst onto the scene in 2019 with his hit sketch show, Tim Robinson has become the reigning king of offbeat comedy, a one-man meme machine whose face took over all our feeds.

Cringe Daddy

(Also: yelling-so much yelling.) But behind the surreal, over-the-top characters that he plays, the real Tim Robinson is a low-key dad with two kids-a guy best understood when you strip away all but the essential, unvarnished facts:

Tim Robinson was born and raised in the suburbs of Detroit. His mom worked for Chrysler, and his dad worked in construction.

He loves the Lions and the Pistons. Tim's favorite athlete of all time is Pistons legend Rasheed Wallace.

Tim is big into skateboarding and still tries to get out there regularly. His favorite skater growing up was Daewon Song.

"He's a ripper," Tim says. Oh, and Tim's favorite skate trick? The frontside flip.

"It feels really good to land," he says. "The older I get, the harder it is. So when I can get one, I feel great."

Why Does Everyone Have Big, Fake White Teeth Now? - Veneers were once a dirty secret. Now they're the new luxury status symbol, and the famous and wealthy are flocking to Hollywood's favorite dentist in search of ever more perfect teeth.

Early one afternoon in August, at his office on the ninth floor of the Camden Medical Arts building in Beverly Hills, Dr. Kevin Sands slipped on a black surgical mask and latex gloves before peering into the mouth of a sleeping princess. Instead of standard medical scrubs, he wore black Amiri slacks, a matching James Perse T-shirt, and Nike sneakers designed by Travis Scott. On his left wrist was a Patek Philippe Aquanaut with a khaki green dial and matching strap. The watch cost just over $50,000, which is about a third of what her royal highness was paying to have 28 perfect-looking cosmetically enhanced teeth restored with a new set of handmade porcelain crowns and veneers.
