There's 149 items currently covering most catergories. I would call that a wide range.

What a weird guy

I don't know if this is international but it's a common joke in British media to use this as a bit of a joke, for example a geeky character might say that they're a bibliophile, and the dumb character will make it sexual.

While I agree that laziness could contribute, you can't just decide to swap, everyone would have to swop. Especially when Whatsapp is so common in the workplace now.

I nearly didn't go because I've been to so many Natural History museums and I had a short time in New York, but then my friend reminded me that Ross from friends worked there and that tipped the scales.

It was so huge though, I got there at opening and there was genuinely a point where I realised I needed to speed up or I wouldn't finish it before closing time! That's without any of the special exhibitions too.

I'm not saying he's lying, he wasn't molested by Michael, that doesn't mean that the other victims must be lying. Paedophiles have preferences like anyone else and even within families, a person might assault one of their children while not touching the others.

I'm enjoying this thread, I've been to many of the museums already mentioned and they're all great.

For me I think my current favourite is the Natural History Museum in New York which I went to a couple of months ago. It was enormous and every room had a few really special things. I learnt so much!

My all time favourite is just so difficult. I really enjoyed The House of Terror in Budapest, I really didn't know anything about the topic at all and I was thoroughly educated.

I'd also give a special mention to a museum in Rhodes that was full of sculptures they'd pulled from shipwrecks. The geography means there's a lot of shipwrecks nearby and those date from ancient Greece onwards. The oldest sculptures were well rounded by the water and it gave them a very weird ethereal look.

I just had a look, it's closed for 14 years! I did go before the closure but I will say, it's not good enough to wait 14 years for.

I loved that, did you look up the chimney?

I loved the penis museum! I was worried it would be uncomfortable for a group of friends but actually it was quite educational.

Georgia aquarium though, I could live there.

Any museum where you walk in and mentally say, "I've made a huge mistake."

I went to an art museum in the balearics once, the door was open, normal stuff, free entry sign, donation box, cloakroom, etc. So I'm walking round the first room and a guy runs in shouting "NO! NO!" and chases me right out of the museum. I definitely made a huge mistake there but I wish I knew what the mistake was!
