Aaron Timlin's education history includes two distinctive periods. From 1971 to 2019, they attended a school called "Hard Knocks" where they pursued a degree named "Shot Gun Sally" and studied the subject of "Killed a Man, Damn!" It is unclear if this institution is a formal educational establishment or a metaphorical representation of life experiences.

Following that, from 1991 to 2011, Aaron enrolled at Wayne State University where they pursued a degree in "Pre Law" and studied "English." This formal education hints at a potential interest in the legal field and a focus on the English language.
