Museum of Failure Opens in Sweden
 
http://museumoffailure.se/

Helsingorborg, Sweden -just a short ferry ride across the water from Helsingor, Denmark and Hamlet's Castle there.

And yet, Marxism isn't listed in the exhibits.

PalenQ Jun 8th, 2017 03:17 PM

I fail to see the raison-d'etre of such a museum.

It doesn't seem any weirder than the Museum of Broken Relationships in Zagreb.

IMDonehere Jun 8th, 2017 03:55 PM

Do you think it will succeed?

PalenQ Jun 8th, 2017 04:00 PM

Do you think it will succeed?>

Or will it live up to its name? May get day-trippers from Denmark but otherwise Helsingorborg is unremarkable for the foreign tourist.

Failure is more interesting than success.

My DH plans to visit this museum on his yearly trip to Sweden, next month...I appreciate the post.

What's a paradox? If the Museum of Failure is a success...

Maybe our UK election should be featured...

A wax figure of May waxing nostalgic about his previous majority?

StCirq Jun 9th, 2017 01:31 PM

His?

PalenQ Jun 9th, 2017 01:37 PM

Oops - mind failed me-again.

PalenQ Jun 9th, 2017 02:31 PM

Actually it was a Freudian slip! Same with Maggie Thatcher.

Here is the Incomplete Book of Failures published in 1979.

I fail to see the humor in that.

IMDonehere Jun 10th, 2017 09:09 AM

Com'on Pal, at least make the insults funny.

We have here a failure of communication?
