Brian Limond was born on 20 October 1974 to Jessie and Billy Limond in Glasgow, and grew up in the Carnwadric area of the city.
He studied multimedia technology at Glasgow Caledonian University, graduating in 1996.
He found success as a website designer and Flash developer after starting work at Glasgow-based new media company Black ID.

Limmy was in a relationship with Lynn McGowan from 2000; In January 2022, she announced they had separated.
In 2001, he co-founded the company Chunk Ideas, selling his stake in the company to co-founder Donnie Kerrigan in 2006, so he could concentrate on his comedy career.
During his time there, he was asked to contribute to the book New Masters of Flash: The 2002 Annual, a resource for Macromedia Flash developers.
He has been teetotal since 2004.
In late 2006, he released a daily podcast called Limmy's World of Glasgow, which received interest from the mainstream British media.
After continuing his comedy work for several years, Limmy was commissioned by BBC Scotland to create a sketch show, Limmy's Show.
Scottish culture magazine The List listed Limmy at No. 14 on their "Hot 100" list in 2006, which celebrated the people who made the biggest impact on cultural life in Scotland over that year.
In March 2007, Limmy took to the stage for two sold-out appearances at the Glasgow International Comedy Festival.
In 2007, he played a character called Zack Eastwood in Consolevania and VideoGaiden.
In June 2009, the BBC commissioned a six-episode series of Limmy's Show, a sketch show which premiered on BBC Scotland in January 2010.
It ran for three series and a Christmas special between 2010 and 2013, and won two BAFTA Scotland awards.
He made a cameo appearance in The IT Crowd, playing a window cleaner with an unintelligible Glaswegian accent in the episode "The Final Countdown", which aired in July 2010.

On 1 May 2017, he released his second book of short stories, That's Your Lot, embarking on a similar UK book reading tour to his first.

Limmy has been noted for the parody tributes he often tweets on the announcement of a celebrity's death; he invariably posts that he "had the pleasure of meeting [them] at a charity do once. [They were] surprisingly down to earth, and VERY funny".
Following the death of nightclub owner Peter Stringfellow, his tweet was mistakenly reported as a genuine tribute by Sky News.
A follow-up series was commissioned by the BBC and began airing in April 2020.
After the airing of his one-off commentary Limmy's Other Stuff in October 2020, Limmy announced his retirement from television, citing his mental health, as doing TV work made him "fucking suicidal".
