Brother from Another Mother - The New Yorker

Individually made, using pots of hair clearly labelled—“Short Black/Brown, Human,” “Long Black, Human”—they are destined for the heads of a dazzling array of characters: old white sportscasters and young Arab gym posers; rival Albanian/Macedonian restaurateurs; a couple of trash-talking, churchgoing, African-American ladies; and the President of the United States, to name a few. Between them, Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele play all of these people, and more, on their hit Comedy Central sketch show, now in its fourth season. Nathan Fielder’s Ingenious Dumb Humor.

Nathan Fielder’s Ingenious Dumb Humor

It was nestled into a strip mall in Los Feliz, on the east side of Los Angeles, and its logo was a double-tailed mermaid, rendered in black and green, wearing a crown and a smile. Its name, spelled out in blocky white letters, was recognizable, too, except for a blunt détournement up top: DUMB STARBUCKS COFFEE. The store was the creation of Nathan Fielder, a Canadian-born comedian, and he designed it to look exactly like an outpost of the ubiquitous coffee chain — that is, until you realized that the word “dumb” was everywhere. The menu listed 27 beverages with names like Dumb Iced Caramel Macchiato and Dumb Chai Tea Latte.
