Time for another funny sign

Wyalkatchem Museum was very impressive. There were four large sheds full of old tractors and farm machinery and other rooms holding household items and memorabilia. There was room for items to be spaced out and everything looked freshly dusted and clean.
The entrance fee was lower than some museums that we’d been to and the souvenirs were very reasonably priced. Whoever did the signage had a sense of humour too. The machinery sheds were labelled ‘Bill’s Shed’ or ‘Brian’s Shed’ or whatever. I know those aren’t particularly funny but we did like this one which pointed us up the stairs to see more items.
Do you use 'stuff' when you can't think of a better word?

Stuff is a perfectly acceptable word. It reminds me of that line in America’s “A Horse With No Name,” only it should have said “birds and plants and rocks and STUFF” instead of things.

Seen that one a few times
Stuff, I use the word stuff now and then if I can't or don't feel liking describing something properly

Like I'm doing stuff just now is my usual reply when I can't be bothered doing anything for anyone else even if I am not busy

I guess mostly it's junk we're referring to when we say stuff.

Not very professional …maybe. ‘ items ‘ or ‘equipment ‘ could have been used instead

Oh, I like the personal touches. Sounds like the museum doesn't take itself too seriously, and that appeals to me. I probably use "stuff" on a daily basis!

Sure I use stuff even when I can think of a better word. The sign is cute.

I use the word stuff if I cannot of a proper description of the items.
