Having an “unusual
sense of humor” is a characteristic of a
self-actualized person according to the psychologist, Maslow, and that is just what you need to
enjoy a silly wax museum. It’s pure “cheesy” fun. My son and my friends did this
in South Carolina as we searched the Hollywood Wax Museum for the most real looking figure and as we took a lot
of ridiculous pictures.

Reflection
In a wax museum it seems like everyone enjoys bursts of excitement when they see one of their favorite stars. We pretend that the person is really there.
You jump into the picture with the wax figure and have a moment of fame. You also
become an expert on the ones that “look really real” as if any of us really know what these people actually look like
–we have never met any of them. It’s fun to play, and a wax museum gives us all
a reason to do just that!
You will leave full of smiles laughing at your silliness.
