Aziz goes from "nerdy guy" to "the ugly tree"

Aziz Ansari used to do a whole bit about how much it sucked that a Google search for his name would pop up this lead from a Gothamist profile of him:

Aziz Ansari looks like the nerdy guy you went to high school with, and doesn't do too much to negate that image once he takes the stage.

Almost makes ya wonder if New York Magazine is deliberately trying to feed him material with this piece: Aziz Ansari and Friends Are Even Funnier Than They Look.

Aziz Ansari’s crew look kinda like they jumped out of the ugly tree and hit every branch just for laughs, and we wouldn’t put it past them: They do dumb like few other funny-looking guys.

Jumped out of the ugly tree and hit every branch just for laughs? Who says that?
