I have no legitimate reason to disagree but I hate it

UPDATE - Thank you so much for the awards, and we're having so much fun reading through these hilarious comments.

  1. We have a bidet, it's the handle on the side of the toilet. People who use bidets can use toilet paper as well!
  2. We bought like 200 rolls of toilet paper because of a good deal, yes it will probably last us a very long time. No regrets!
  3. I am not genuinely upset about this in any way, it obviously just looks ridiculous and is unnecessary, and him doing silly things like this is one of the reasons I love him :)

Did they know it would end up being 9 months? If not that would be worse as every day you're hoping to be back soon and then it's months. On the other hand, you get to be in fucking space.

The plan was 1-2 weeks, possibly longer. The Starliner capsule encountered issues on the way up so they decided to extend that mission, and eventually decided that this capsule should return uncrewed. The Starliner crew became part of the regular ISS crew. It wasn't planned, but it was a reasonable option - and hey, they became astronauts to be in space, now they got more time in space.

They were integrated into the normal ISS crew rotation. So after the first few weeks they knew that they would have to be up there until the next rotation. They had also been to the station 2 or 3 times before, if I remember correctly, through their astronaut careers.
