This skit was incredibly random, yes, and not really that funny, but it caused my friends to turn to me and say "Today Sponge? What's that all about? Do those still exist? Weren't they on Seinfeld once?"
And I said "YES! They do exist, they are filled with spermicide, they were on Seinfeld, and I've previously made a video about them!"

The Today Sponge <a href="http://www.todaysponge.com/about.html">website</a> actually has really good information on it that does correct some of the inaccuracies (for the sake of humor.. or attempts at humor) in the SNL skit. One important point: it is only 89-91% effective, so this option might not be for everyone!
I also loved the sketch right before the Sponge skit - it skewers the way home alarm companies prey on women's fears in their advertising.
