One was Cecily Strong the other was Melissa Villasenor.

Not sure which one you think is the "cute" one. They both have moments when they look pretty good and other moments where you wonder if it's even the same woman because she looks so 'meh'.

Thanks guys. You're all a bunch of cockroaches in the bodega.
Most pathetic post I've seen on TexAgs in over 20 years.

The weirdest thing about "bodegas" is that they decided to call them bodegas.

That's spanish for warehouse. That's not a store.

but they are like a mini warehouse. You walk in and every single wall is full of items from top to bottom.

Lighten up.

Damn y'all. Google is real. Use it.

The History of NYC Bodegas
The name bodega originates from the Spanish word, which can mean "storeroom," "wine cellar," or "grocery store," because these shops first started popping up in the 1940s and '50s in Hispanic communities. The majority of bodegas were opened by Puerto Ricans, and sometimes by other Caribbean and Latin American immigrants, who came to New York in large numbers after World War II and wanted more of a local store that they could run to on a daily basis. New Yorkers as a whole took to the idea, and bodegas multiplied. Nowadays, bodega owners are not exclusively Latin American, but the name has stuck.

So What Is a Bodega?
A bodega is a small convenience store that sells staples like chips, candy, coffee, sodas, lottery tickets, over-the-counter remedies, and household items like laundry detergent and trash bags. Some have a deli counter, some sell beer, and some have neither, but what defines a bodega goes beyond any one product.

Bodegas are often open 24/7, ensuring that you'll always have access to ramen and detergent in even the most dire situations (e.g., if you're doing laundry while hungry in the middle of the night). They're also ubiquitous, with more than 10,000 bodegas spread across New York's five boroughs. This combination means that if you need to pick up something after a night out, you can do so at 4 a.m. at your closest bodega or your farthest, depending on how tipsy and confused you are.

As all NYC locals know, many bodegas also have cats. Although some shoppers don't appreciate the presence of these feline guests, bodega cats actually serve a larger good: exterminating rodents, whose presence (trust us) is less favorable than even the stinkiest Garfield.

One of my biggest pet peaves. Originators get skipped over for their effort but the first reply with a quote of the OPO plus one dumb reply gets 30....

It's sad how pathetic this show has become. I liked the "What's my Name" skit, but it did feel borrowed. The writing is horrible and the musical guests are irrelevant.

So that means La Bodega restaurant in CS translates to "The Warehouse". I should not be thinking about taco warehouses with two hours to go before dinner.

Chris Farley was the best. Like he says in the song he still make me laugh and I've loved introducing my kids to his stuff and seeing them laugh.

Another vote for Rectix and Opera Man.

Opera Man was the funniest thing I've seen on SNL in years.

That's the best Weekend Update segment they've had in over a decade.

Makes me miss the 90's when SNL had comedians and writers that made fun of EVERYONE and made you laugh.

I've said it before, but my issue with most of the comedy shows currently is they are being lazy. I'm not a fan of Trump, and some of the jokes are definitely funny. But if you only make your jokes and segments about one topic its boring and stale.

And most of the jokes are personal, not silly. The comedy shows mostly make fun of Republicans. They treat Democrats with kid gloves. It's pathetic. Their jokes are so forced and predictable. It's more like a cheap sales pitch than actual comedy.

That's definitely more of a recent development, because a lot of shows would rip all politicians a new one in the past. (deservedly)

I don't remember them "skewering" Obama. Please.

Because you've been a regular watcher and would know if they ever made fun of Obama.

There have been plenty of times when I've put significant effort into a post - effortpost - and it did not turn blue. In fact, that's probably happened to me more than any other poster.
