  • Hi! Welcome back to dumb SourceFed I'm Lee Newton.

  • A new parody store of Starbucks, called DUMB Starbucks is making crazy news, as they set up shop over the weekend in Los

  • Angeles and gave away free cups of joe.

  • Now the store is very similar to Starbucks. In fact, it's almost exactly the same,

  • except for the fact the word DUMB is in front of it, but like everywhere!

  • It says Dumb coffee on the Starbucks cups, the menu has Dumb iced coffee and Iced tea, Dumb espresso,

  • Dumb iced espresso, Dumb brewed coffee, Dumb tea, they even have DUMB Nora Jones duet CDs for sale!!

  • Now I know what you're thinking, what kind of a dumb viral stunt is this?

  • And it does make it look even more suspicious when Community creator Dan Harmon and Rain Wilson are some

  • of the first people to tweet about the dumb storeso help me God, if there's a Dumb Starbucks new TV show coming out, please cast me as the lovable high barista, cause there's always one in every store and I believe in me.

  • Currently, a spokesman for Starbucks told the Wall Street Journal that Dumb Starbucksobviously

  • has no affiliation with Starbucks, and as of right now it's unclear who's behind the coffee shop,

  • but they are able to get away with it due to it being considered “a work of parody art”.

  • Under the law, Dumb Starbucks is not a coffee shop but an art gallery

  • And the Dumb coffee you are buying is considered art.

  • And clearly the art is working, plenty of people have tweeted out about the 1-hour wait outside of the Dumb Starbucks,

  • and they did the super smart tactic of giving away free coffee over the weekend.

  • Not to mention, creating a product you can't get anywhere else.

  • I like coffee, but I've never had overpriced dumb coffee! I NEED IT NOW!!

  • Question: So guys what other parody stores are you looking forward to?
