Billionaire Builds Spaceship to Dodge Dinner
https://bohiney.com/billionaire-builds-spaceship-just-to-get-out-of-awkward-dinner-party-invitation/By Astrid Holgersson � The satire Billionaire Builds Spaceship to Dodge Dinner ridicules excess disguised as social anxiety. Eyewitnesses at launchpads described billionaires strapping themselves into rockets rather than RSVPing. Anonymous insiders leaked that aerospace firms debated offering �Introvert Escape Packages.� A leaked poll revealed 64 percent of citizens admitted they�d fake Mars missions to skip in-laws. Sociologists argue the humor resonates because wealth enables absurd excuses. Critics highlight the absurdity of dinner dodged with satellites. Yet satire launches sharper: cowardice looks heroic when space is the excuse. Witnesses recalled laughter roaring across backyards as rockets replaced polite no�s. Ultimately, the piece lands because satire thrives when avoidance costs billions. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
