If that's a popular place to cut through, that hedge would also get wrecked from kids trying to see if they can jump it.

Source: the hedge surrounding part of the property of my childhood home. (I could jump it!)

So he's an asshole assaulting children for fun, which is also almost certainly illegal

If told this I'm sure the cunt would say "muh propertay tho"

I especially like when people do this in the snow and make big holes that I can easily step into

Those fuckers. Maybe instead of the bush fence, it should have been a wrought iron fence. With spikes on top.

With auto targeting tranquilizer dart firing turrets, of course.

You don't want turrets when you can send out the flamethrower drones once the proximity sensors are triggered.

That's a great point. And come to think about it, the flamethrower drones may work better alongside the attack dogs.

I have a hobby of doing the opposite: making undesirepaths.

During large snowfalls, I often need to bring out the shovel and make a path, both from my house and in front of it towards the main road. I like to add turns and bends, just enough to confuse and lightly annoy, but not enough for people to consider stepping into deep snow or making their own path.

My gosh this is such a funny premise.

That hedge could actually be a gods windbreak behind the bench

Apparently when they were building the death star, they couldn't figure out where to put the vents, so they just turned off the gravity and threw a bunch of womp rats in the center and built out pipes along the vectors of where they died.

No way there is no desire path Delta at the end of the main path where it officially meets the pavement.

University of Maryland did this with their walkways for a while. They let the kids beat down paths for the year to make the sidewalks.

Makes heaps of sense, when you can. Still need something for people in wheelchairs and stuff early on though.

I've often thought painting lines across paths and then observing the paint wear off could tell you a lot about which paths could be removed, or where corners could be rounded off better.

They had regular sidewalks that the campus planners made. But they took a year to see what the students walking paths looked like.

Image where the bush fence appears, there should be a faint path near the road, those who don't want to hop over/wreck the bush but it should be gone once the path through the bush is open.
