Seth Meyers and Colin Jost (screenwriters), Don Roy King (director) Xanax
for Summer Gay Weddings / 2013
Actor Bill Hader does indeed look troubled as
does another woman (Cecily Strong).
Finally we are told the
point of the ad, that there is, thankfully, a new drug, Xanex for Gay Summer
Weddings, the only medicine that relieves the stress of “spectacular gay summer
weddings.”
One user (Bobby Moynihan) declares
that he used to be anxious that he wouldn’t have the right thing to wear, but
now can enjoy everyone’s “immaculate pastel suit.” He admits he doesn’t even
own an iron.
A woman (Vanessa Bell)
relates that at her wedding she gave her guests Cheez-it and bottled water, Keith
and William gave us two tickets to Italy and 40,000 dollars.
Another complains that
everything on their registry has to be shipped from France, so that she needed
to sneak in her gift when they weren’t looking.
Another male (also played
Hader) mentions that Barak Obama sent the gay couple his personal congratulations.
My grandmother called Obama the “N-word” in her toast.
There is a final
recommendation to take Xanax for all Gay Summer Weddings, with a mention that
it’s necessary for Lesbian summer weddings, which shows a poorly dressed
lesbian couple holding the leash to numerous pet dogs.
