So perhaps I take top 10 lists just a tad too seriously. And perhaps I'm never quite happy with my choices in the end despite having spent hours trying to decide what stays and what goes. So perhaps I'm a crazy person in that regard? But does that make me a crazy person?
Yes, yes it does but, it's okay I accept you for who you are.

@Ustegius, going to Helsinki sometime this spring to watch one of my best friends and my wife’s friend in Mamma Mia! (in Finnish, won’t understand a word...). Anything else worth checking out when we’re there (if there’s time)?
Oh cool! I'm not Helsinki based so I don't really know any good local hotspots. Nor have I done the tourist stuff.

Well I'm an art guy, so I like the big museums of the city centre. Ateneum has wide variety of Finnish art history on display, like lot of my favorites by Scherfbeck, Järnefelt, Gallen-Kallela and Simberg. The modern art Museum Kiasma is usually nice too, but I have no idea about their spring displays.

Places I haven't visited myself, but have interest in is arcade hall Sugoi, but it is quite far from the center and has weird opening hours.

Ah, I know you're not from there but thought I'd ask at least. Like I said, not sure if I'll have any time to spare anyway. But thanks. We'll see if wife (and possibly friends coming with us) will want to go to museums, the uncultured peasants.

Yeah yeah, anytime! I'll shoot you a message if something comes to mind that evaded it for now.

I'd say overall that the core central and the parks on the coast are pretty nice to just walk in. If you want something exotic, you could try Sompasauna. It's a public sauna free for anyone to heat up in a middle of a construction site. Not sure though if it will is there anymore. It was always kinda of hippy un-permitted thing.

For more pleasant sauna experience, maybe consider visiting Löyly in Hernesaari area. Haven't been there either, but heard it's pretty fancy experience.

Oh right, I remember you shared a video about Sompasauna on here at some point, it looked crazy but definitely cool.

I love just strolling around in parks and city centres though so I might just wander around and try to get a feel for the city. :nod

Coming out ironically is also overrated these days

Maybe coming out at all is overrated? :?bunny

Since "coming out" shouldn't even have to be a thing.

40 years before? So from the early 50's? :XD

Tbf The Twilight Zone was on my list to begin with but it ended up scrapped around Top 20 something. Had a few 60's-70's ones there which just baaarely missed the cut, too. In the end, late 90's was the start of the Golden Age of Television in my eyes. Oldest ones on my list ended up being two 80's shows. :cookiehand
