Trivia
- GimR's tag originated as an abbreviation for "God is my Rock", which he chose while he was a teenager. As he stopped being a Christian since, the tag no longer has a specific meaning according to him, though he has jokingly stated it now stands for Glock in my Rari. [3][4]
- GimR was commonly mistaken to operate GRsmash's YouTube channel, though this was declared false by GRSmash.[5]
- GimR is victim of a meme, where he is blamed for killing Project M.
- GimR is associated with the phrase and meme "The GimZ always WinZ", due to his upsets among certain players, such as Silent Wolf at Smash the Record 2015.
- On May 4th, 2022, GimR was over two hours late for a much-hyped Twitch broadcast during which he had planned to demonstrate new "game-breaking" tech for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This resulted in mass hysteria among the community, an outpouring of "Back to the Lab" memes, and GimR becoming a nationwide trending topic on Twitter. He ultimately revealed technical issues had occured while making last minute adjustments to the presentation.
