Shatnerism

Shatnered

When a situation completely changes tone from reverent to mildly absurd.

Example: When the 2010 Winter Olympics closing ceremony went from the moving extinguishing of the Olympic flame to the tune of Neil Young's "Long May You Run" to William Shatner discussing the hazards of having sex in a canoe.

"Did you see the closing ceremony? It was great, but then it totally got Shatnered."
