Space thots kept interrupting him

After he landed, the thots/gold diggers all came running to hug each one as they got out while yelling at the top of their lungs. When Shatner got out to hug Bezos and give his semi-brain scrambled eloquent speech of amazeballz, them thots/gold diggers yelled over him and Bezos was just patting him on the shoulder before ignoring him for a short while to grab some champagne to jizz pop off on each other. They were jizz popping the froth on Shatner as well but he seemed stunned if not a bit frustrated before trying to resume his Space The Final Frontier speech. Finally Bezos's dick brain finally settled down and let him talk. For a 90 yo, he didn't seem as surprised at it once he got up there unlike the other passengers flipping around upside down and such. I'd probably go meh if I got sent up there as I have already seen it in books and videos from the ISS unless there was some interesting disaster event happening below.

Bezos was distracted and ignored Shatner for a short while which bothered me, too. They should have given Shatner a good mike. I disagree that he wasn't impressed by what he experienced. He repeatedly said the fragility and vulnerability of our planet astonished him. He said it was an intense experience. He compared the blackness of space to death and Earth's light as life. He was shocked by how thin our atmosphere is and said it disappeared so quickly when the vessel passed by. Meanwhile, Bezos came across as been there, done that - very casual attitude.

In the video, you can see Shatner mesmerized by his view of Earth while in orbit. He seemed to hold on tight so he wouldn't fly around in the cabin. He's 90 after all.

I'd like to see Mark Hamill go up next.

Yeah, I know he was astonished by his words but his body and movements didn't show it is what I am saying. If you looked at the video you linked, you can see the bitches yelping and the other folks floating around, some upside down and moving about frantic to see everything. Shatner on the other hand was just too busy looking out the window enjoying the view. Maybe the age had something to do with his lack of energetic movements to no flips.

In the beginning of the video and around 24 seconds in you can see the astonishment on Shatner's face and he's saying, "Oh, Jesus!" "No description!" and "Wow!". Shatner had the right idea to experience that view because it's once in a lifetime. I'm surprised that none of them were trained on the zero-gravity planes before their trip.

I respect Shatner because he's into experiencing life to the fullest. He's like Jim Carrey's character in the "Yes Man" movie.

His description about space travel is the best I've heard.

A Business Insider article mentions Bezos' rude behavior while Shatner is talking to him.

You right wing slimes have to attack Bezos all the time ... because as Shatner said - he has a plan to fix stuff. He is actually doing something, and you corporate toadies cannot stand it.

Bezos did not ignore Shatner, but so what if he did. Shatner gets plenty of attention.

[–] Keelai (34880) 3 years ago

Sucking up to Bezos online isn't going to raise your pay at Amazon.

[–] brux (14724) 3 years ago

And pulling stupid comments out of your ass only shows your worthlessness.

Good description of what happened -

[–] maximmm (3343) 3 years ago

I do think it's awesome to hear Shatner speak as eloquently as he does at his age. Anytime I see someone in their 90's speak coherently and be fully aware of all that's going on around them - it gives me hope that I too might end up the same and not like Joe Biden and other almost 80 year olds.

Having said that, it was kind of sad to see Shatner to be used as a tool - and oh, he certainly did try to sell it as this wondrous experience, which.... perhaps if free, it really might be wondrous and worth it, but for the price they ask - you are better off playing a VR game in space or watch a cam recording of the flight on a big screen TV.

BTW - calling them astronauts/space tourists is an insult to tourism and actual astronauts. I don't say I've been to France just because i had a 2 hour layover in the paris airport. 5 minutes in the 'not quite space' is utter nonsense. Get a person to the international space station - now we are talking.

[–] Rorikon (17889) 3 years ago

He's still sharp from what I can see. Doesn't even look 90 yo, at most in his late 50's to early 60's.

You're right, I wouldn't call them astronauts as well since they never wore the suit to get up there (neither did Branson of Virgin). I'd call them that once they reach the ISS and done a space walk.

[–] Keelai (34880) 3 years ago

There is a distinction between a civilian astronaut like Shatner and a commercial astronaut who works in space. That space ride, even though brief, is still extremely dangerous. The technology is in its very early stages and people like Shatner are basically test subjects as well as pioneers. The space shuttle blew-up and three earlier astronauts died in their space capsule. Those incidents aren't far from my mind each time someone goes into orbit. Shatner and fellow astronauts are doing something very courageous.

[–] maximmm (3343) 3 years ago

Stop calling them astronauts. I wouldn't even call it a space ride, since they don't reach the actual NASA defined space - and they don't go anywhere in space - they just briefly touch it and down we go. It's almost like an amusement ride, even if it is by far more dangerous and expensive.

https://www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2021/10/05/now-that-4-civilians-flew-to-space-are-they-astronauts/

These are astronauts - they went through a legit training - they trained to take over the craft in case of trouble - they had a mission related to space.

At most, you could call them space tourists, but even that's stretching it, since as I've mentioned earlier, I don't call a 5 minute stay in paris as a tour.

[–] Keelai (34880) 3 years ago

You missed the update. The definition for astronaut changed at the start of the new commercial space tourism era.

Language changes. The first computers were humans who did mathematical calculations. The definition changed and is now used exclusively to mean a programmable machine.

I wouldn't compare going to Paris with being in orbit. We have to start somewhere. The Wright Brother's first flight lasted 12 seconds and was barely off the ground. Baby steps.

Oh MAN do I agree with this statement!

Space Thots!! 🤣

I had to look it up. Abbreviation for "That Ho Over There"

[–] kungfulord (957) 3 years ago

Thots in general, been space thots or earthlings thots always need to be the center of attention
