WATCH: ‘SNL’ mocks A’jad’s NY visit

Dr. Evil has some competition!

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s visit to New York was skewered on “Saturday Night Live Weekend Update Thursday” – with the Iranian President (played by Fred Armisen) shown gesturing with his pinkie, imitating the antagonist in the “Austin Powers” movie series.

The skit shows A’jad and his translator (Nasim Pedrad) discussing his recent trip to the Big Apple to speak to the UN General Assembly.

“I love people-watching,” the despot says through his translator. “My favorite game is ‘homosexual or Jew?’

“I get most excited when someone is both. That is why I’m always so happy to see you Seth,” the leader explains, gesturing to SNL’s Seth Meyers.

Midway through the skit, the translator halts her deciphering duties to complain about working with Ahmadinejad, saying that he “looks like he’s waiting for a bus outside of the methadone clinic.”

She then discusses her concerns about Ahmadinejad’s ambitions.

“He just moved our entire nuclear facility underneath a mountain,” she says. “That’s literally what Dr. Evil does in ‘Austin Powers.’”

Later in the skit, the translator makes an appeal to The Post, showing a copy of the recent “Peace of Sh!t” cover showing Mahmoud flashing ‘love’ while at the UN.

“Was he upset about that?” Meyers asks.

“Oh, he has no clue,” the translator says. “I told him he won Time Man of the Year.”

Other skits on SNL’s Thursday edition included NBC’s ‘newest’ sitcom, “Replacement Refs” – showing a group of NFL refs waffling and throwing flags at a murder trial and doctor’s office.

“You wanted the best, but you’re getting replacement refs,” the jingle goes.

President Obama (Jay Pharoah) also appeared, speaking to unemployed voters in Ohio.

“Remember that movie “Sixth Sense?” I’m like the kid in that movie,” Pharoah’s Obama explains at a rally. “I see employed people. I know you don’t see them, don’t even know they’re there. But one day all of you will be Bruce Willis, and you’ll realize that you were employed all along. Won’t that be nice?”
