While our esteemed colleagues at Gothamist ably cover Saturday Night Live every Sunday morning, there was a notable local element to this weekend's Matthew McConaughey hosted episode that deserves SFist attention, I believe. Our city was involved with not just one, but two of this weekend's sketches, both described by Gothamist as "awkward attempts at weirdness." Just like SF, right?

Next up, we had the Moscone North-set "3D Printer Man," in which a crowd of San Francisco conventioneers is presented with the first-ever human being created using a 3D printer. Roy Batty, he is not:
And finally, while it wasn't set in SF, I certainly though of some of you (not you, of course) when I watched this sketch. If no one's nailed down the Disqus user name "My Long Brown Braid," somebody really should.
