I've never ever watched Tim and Eric in my life. Where should I start? I've heard they're quite brilliant.

First, A Vodka movie.
If you like them's, look into Tom Goes to The Mayor, their first televised show. Also Tim and Eric's Awesome Show, Great Job! and Check it out! With Dr. Steve Brule are some real winner shows, but Tom GTTM is just a good introduction to the dry and unsettling texture of their comedy. Here's an episode of Tom:
Also, and you'll definitely appreciate this, Bob Odenkirk (and David Cross) were huge influences on them and
their show Mr. Show with Bob and David has some similarities to Awesome Show and other Tim and Eric shenanigans. Mr. Show is a bit more improv-sketch based but it's fucking hilarious. Odenkirk produced their early stuff, as well.
Have some choice clips.
