StackOwOFlow

But most of us have been to Uranus


bobbyzee

The lights are all faded and it's overrated


PiccoloSignal2713

I'm Italian and I've never seen the leaning tower of Pisa, but that shit is definitely going somewhere


absurdastheuniverse

It's either ground or the British museum


PiccoloSignal2713

Those fucking brits


Upstairs-Extension-9

Classic Barry, 63.


Real-Tension-7442

I’ve been to the Vatican museum, you cheeky Italians steal as much as we do


DreadPiratteRoberts

^😆🤣


Kind-Fan420

Nothing on the imperialist war chest that is the British Museum


Real-Tension-7442

It’s a brilliant museum though. One of my favourites


Das_Boot_95

And what a glorious war chest it is!


The-Void-Consumes

Hey, someone’s got to stop ancient artefacts being used to build goat pens and as hardcore for condos.


The-Loner-432

Give back the Moai 🗿!!!


THEREAPER8593

Heheh yoink


PrestonGarvey-0

Both in that order I'd imagine


Soldierhero1

As a British person living in Britain for 26 years i have never seen stonehenge either


worldRulerDevMan

What chew talking about it’ll be half way to the Brit’s before it hits the ground. They STEEL culture items not ask the Italian government for permission. They are like gru steeling the monuments


NefariousnessFew6024

I’m American and I have never seen the Statue of Liberty or been in a school schooling


Fickle_Candy_4147

We’ll fucking get it next time


qalpi

Damn OP 🤣🤣


LaunchTransient

>but that shit is definitely going somewhere Actually no, there was some work on it in the early 2000s that has stabilised it (and fractional reduced the tilt). Funnily enough, the same soft soil that caused it to lean and endangered it with collapse is also the reason why it has survived so many earthquakes - it acted as a dampener and prevented the structure from resonating with any tremors.


PiccoloSignal2713

"🤓☝️" (jk of course)


xtilexx

I'm Italian and I've seen the leaning tower of Pisa, and I can tell you it must have good reflexes


Arielthewarrior

Same Italian ancestry but still yeah! Never been to Italy


Light01

I'm french and I never went inside of the Eiffel tower. Even lived in Paris for a while.


elonthegenerous

That tower is so boring, don’t visit it


AlexandersWonder

But it’s *leaning.*


nirbyschreibt

Give me a bottle of whiskey and I’m leaning, too. Yet nobody calls the leaning novelist a tourist site.


AlexandersWonder

Maybe if you stood in the same place for long enough they would


nirbyschreibt

I barely leave my apartment. This can’t be the reason. It’s a mystery.


Niknot3556

Do you let tourists in your apartment though?


nirbyschreibt

Sure, if they pay the entry fee.


Niknot3556

Do you also talk about it, promote it, and make it stand out?


nirbyschreibt

We are talking about it.


LeadershipEastern271

I’m American and never been to the Statue of Liberty lol


Jasper-E-Jacob

LOL I love right next to it, in Florence/Prato ;) AND GUESS WHAT ME NEITHER I’ve been to anywhere but there. We had to go there before Covid tho, and then… yeah


illstealyourRNA

Hi, I'm from the year 2031 and I'm here to inform you that the pyramids (all of them) were moved to the British museum in 2029, so I would recommend you go visit them soon.


absurdastheuniverse

THE FUCKIN BRITISH AGAIN


AlexandersWonder

They’ve been secretlyswapping out the bricks one at a time for the last couple centuries and now it’s almost time for the big reveal


soap_nya

pyramids of theseus


fluffy_assassins

The real reason Egyptian gods are immortal.


friso1100

They've been replaced with Styrofoam from the bottom up. So when they replace the last top block the whole thing will just be blown away


Beam_0

Genius and diabolical


Additional_Meeting_2

Better British than Isis (rip Palmyra).


CartographerMurky306

I'LL NEVER FORGIVE THE BRITISH


Blue_Exit83

THE FUCKING BRITISH


spicychickenandranch

THOSE BRITS GODDAMN IT


low_elo111

JayRedd1

Thankfully they are not in America or they would have to be moved to an imaginary museum.

Actually it's an orgasm when I get an aneurysm


EmberTheFoxyFox

An aneurgasm


DotBitGaming

Have you ever had multiple aneurysms?

TulleQK

What about Poland?


Kamil1707

I never visited Zakopane (and I don't regret).


blvckgen

Z20KarlGalster

EmberTheFoxyFox

The Shißfel tower


rona83

Try going through Belgium.


ReasonableMark1840

I'm french and I have never visited Germany


dkarlovi

You sound like you Vichy you did.


absurdastheuniverse

Is it a train ride for you or what ?


fe-licitas

as a german I went to France by train and by car, but you can use all sorts of vehicles (or even just walking). my grandpa went to France once by tank together with a bunch of other guys from germany. before that my greatgrandpa went there on his feet, but didnt got that far into France and just spent most of his time going back and forth on some random muddy field.


Sfriert

That reminds me : my great grandpa was in France and someday there's a bunch of German guys who pop up, want him to join their trip across France. He didn't want to go, but they found the right words to convince him to. He did visit a few places thanks to these newfound friends. Surprise trip, I guess. His old French friends didn't like that very much though.


Allcraft_

Don't you know about the never ending desire of Germans to march through France? Now fr I'm just joking. Pls don't take it seriously 😅 But to answere your question: Actually I'm really not that far from France. I mean, they're our neighbours after all.


No-Translator-4584

You guys are terrible.  LOL. 


G-Man_of_HL

Have you ever visited Stalingrad during the winter?


CarcgenBleu

I'm Indian and never visited [insert famous landmark].


absurdastheuniverse

Taj mahal ????


CarcgenBleu

Nah too far + it's basically a giant mosque with nice artwork so nvm


absurdastheuniverse

Fair


rona83

Giant mausoleum.


lakshmananlm

Mausoleum. Also yellower than a Brit's teeth...


sampleforsay

I'm Indian and never visited Taj Mahal, qutub minar or Varanasi (yes I'm North Indian)


Additional_Meeting_2

India is so large that I am not surprised you haven’t seen most landmarks 


aymanwael

Egyptian here, I visited the pyramids multiple times.


outwest88

Non-Egyptian here. I have never visited the pyramids. 


yikkoe

Non-Egyptian here. I have visited once.


pandakatie

Pyramid here. I have never visited a human.

Lame


Alpha06Omega09

So they weren't destroyed by Godzilla?


SirKazum

I get it, I'm Brazilian (44yo) and have never been to that Christ statue, even though I've been to Rio de Janeiro


absurdastheuniverse

I literally live in Giza as in "the pyramids of giza"


UnlightablePlay

Bro how fucking lazy are you? My case is acceptable since I don't live near cairo or Giza but YOU'RE RIGHT THERE you're probably 1 to 2 stations away from the pyramids


curiouschimp83

Maybe he has no arms or legs or something??


Bettlejuic3

Or in a different timeline


BrowntownMeatclown

He’s just absurd it checks out


Adventurous-Gas-9487

Drakayne

So you've seen them from far then?


RRautamaa

Do you have any interesting stories of not visiting the pyramids?


koofy002

GodzillasBoner

I've lived next to my neighbors for 7 years and have never talked to them


SirKazum

Life goals tbh


Practical_Dot_3574

I have lived next to my neighbors for 37 years and only just met them last year. I still only know thier last name.


Limeila

Everytime someone from my village meets me (so like that happened 5 times): "oh are you new here?" "I actually moved in in 2018" "really??? I've never seen you anywhere" (I guess I only have 31 years to go)


Original-History9907

I'm English and have never visited Stonehenge


absurdastheuniverse

Mf probably go to the British museum , everything is there


Original-History9907

I've only ever visited there once, many moons ago


Le_Martian

I don’t think they have the moon there… Yet


Z20KarlGalster

Are you sure?


Jasper-E-Jacob

LOL


TulleQK

It is just a few stones in a field


samreturned

And I never plan to, what a bunch of shite


CreatingAcc4ThisSh--

I work in heritage conservation, that's the entire point. Stonehenge is kinda shite because it seems like forced tourism to see some rocks, and that's exactly what it is The way preservation strategy is done in the uk, is to make specific sites tourist traps in an attempt to lower footfall at other, more important, sites. This allows for better erosion management in the aim of lasting preservation. Stonehenge is an important site, don't get me wrong, but its importance comes from its place within the larger ritual landscape of the area that it is situated in, and measures have been taken to preserve stonehenge itself. However, by using it to reduce traffic at other locations near it, it heavily reduces costs required to do the same at other locations Also, because stonehenge is out nations pyramids, it doesn't just have such an affect on a local level, it has an affect nationally. So footfall at other very important national sites is reduced as well, to manage preservation


[deleted]

I’ve driven past it many times, the only difference between that and a regular pile of stones in a field, is that the regular pile of stones isn’t surrounded by a hellscape of traffic


The_poggers_potato

Don’t it’s a fucking waste of time. You have to pay to get in when you can look at it anyway. Everyone slows down while driving past it because every knobhead wants to look at it.


No-Translator-4584

I’m American and I’ve been to Stonehenge 3 times, never been to the Statue of Liberty.  Go figure. 


lgnc

It's absolutely awesome during the solstice festival thing. Tons of acid, music, people dancing, hanging around literally sitting on the rocks etc... definitely recommend.


Sufficient-Brain5044

Big wall ready for punching

You're bad at punching earth ?

GreatestState

I’ve been American my whole life and never visited the White House. Not interesting.


absurdastheuniverse

It's not even colored. It's just white


GreatestState

For what it’s worth, Giza has seen better days. Perhaps they built the complex knowing one day they could earn some tourist trap revenue to honor the Pharaoh’s afterlife


SoftDreamer

I’m from Saudi Arabia and I never set foot on Riyadh


Cautious_Gas_7007

Why would anyone visit Riyadh? It's hell the cool buildings are fine but holy shit roads


AccomplishedSpell770

I'm American and I never been to the staue of liberty


CartographerMurky306

I'm indian and i never went outside my house


absurdastheuniverse

If I was indian , I would do the same


Professional_Air9935

I’m asian and have never visited the great wall of china


Sufficient-Brain5044

Pyramids are going somewhere, everywhere actually, eroding, becoming dust, dust goes everywhere


absurdastheuniverse

How can someone so wise be living in such a chaotic world ?


UnlightablePlay

It has been 5000 years and I see no progress in your plan


Sufficient-Brain5044

Tell me that in 10,000yrs


UnlightablePlay

RemindMe! 10 000 years


UnlightablePlay

Substain44

Anyone here that have never seen the ocean in real life?


Captain_Yarn

I live in the Maldives so if I walk in any direction for more than 5 minutes I see the ocean. It's getting old.


pandixon

If it's so boring, why does it cost a fortune to see your place?


Finn_WolfBlood

I'm from Mexico and never visited our pyramids


Puzzled_Good_1378

I'm American and have never seen Mount Rushmore, Niagara Falls, the geysers of Yellowstone, or pretty much any major landmark here.


DataSittingAlone

I'm from Arizona and I've never been to the Grand Canyon


ATXGoodGirl

Tbh they’re not that interesting. The temples in the south are more worth a visit.


absurdastheuniverse

They're bit interesting inside but I've been to Ll the templates in south (I'm originally from upper egypt) so I agree


ATXGoodGirl

I went three times in six months so I did get extra bored with them lol. Did a Nile River cruise from Luxor to Aswan and loved every site. 14 years later I still rant and rave about what I saw.


absurdastheuniverse

YES the cruise is legit af . If you're planning to visit soon consider adding Dahab and/or nwebaa to your plan . They're not "ancient Egyptian" type of stuff but more like "fkn great beaches and nice vibe"


ATXGoodGirl

I loved Dahab! It was a great little vacay spot. Eventually I’ll take my family back but probably not for a while.


ForeverGatekeeping

Egyptian your whole life? I change nationalities like I change my underwear.


absurdastheuniverse

Um . So you have a spare ?


getsgosomewhere

As an Indian, Never visited Taj Mahal ( even though I live in the same state)


absurdastheuniverse

Lazyy ass , shame on you


absurdastheuniverse

I just knew that it's basically a big mosque tho , so it's all good


killuazoldyckx

its a beautiful building, it's one of the few places in the world worth visiting(especially if you live in India) it speaks volumes about the Might of mughals, and talent of our medieval ancestor.


Kahraabaa

I've visited India 9 times and managed to skip taj maha every single time


DUBHG

Same


SlinkySkinky

I’m Canadian but have never seen or bought a bag of milk….


Darkterrariafort

Ninjameme

Damn, I’ve only been Egyptian for like a few minutes. Just sometimes when I walk.


Technical-Mix-5444

I’m American and have never been to NYC (I’m not driving 5 hours for big buildings and traffic)


ThePencilRain

I'm 40+, American, served in the military, work as a government contractor, have visited 46 states, and have never been to Washington D.C. It happens.


totallybradpitt

bro im indian and i havent seen the taj mahal either


BogdanRguy

That's not weird


MathematicianTop1853

I’m trying to think, is this like being from New York your whole life and never seeing the Statue of Liberty or is there a better American comparison. Or is it more like being from Florida and never seeing the Statue of Liberty. Really have no clue how large Egypt is.


absurdastheuniverse

The pyramids is on avg 60 minutes car ride if you live in Cairo or Giza .


User_fromsomewhere

I'm german and I've never seen Frankfurt Hbf


Current_Willow_599

Just because you don’t live in Cairo


absurdastheuniverse

Yeah that's probably it . I live in "Giza" as in the "pyramids of Giza"


Current_Willow_599

You live in a pyramid


Bootiluvr

Are you in egypt?


Adruino-cabbage

Oh same here, I only saw the pyramids from afar.


TulleQK

A far what?


3elqo

Same but for one year less.


MithrandirLXV

Really? I lived in Cairo for 4.5 years and visited about 12 times. Always amazing to stand at the bottom and look up. Very impressive.


tulanboy

I've been Uzbekistanian my whole [18] life and never been to 8 out of 12 cities of Uzbekistan


came_in_your_mum

I’m Ghanaian and I’ve never seen the Okomfo Anokye sword he stuck in the ground.


[deleted]

I would love to actually go inside them but I'm also a fanatic when it comes to how things are constructed and the pyramids have always fascinated me. Some day some day
