For being known for their deadly animals, Australia sure does have a lot of cute animals. Pademelons are so cute.

Quokas are the deadliest!! They just have a better PR staff.

betterdeadthanreddit ,

They’re among the deadliest but you still have things like Drop Bears to worry about. You can see one being handled here with the appropriate protective gear. Note how it reflexively begins seeking its next potential prey in this frame captured just before the carnage unfolded. The rest of the video is out there but I don’t recommend looking for it*.

Looking at that eye instantly raised my heart rate.

That’s one angry danger noodle.

First I wanted to downvote because the picture is sideways, but then I realized I’m wrong and the picture is perfectly right.

See, I’m in Czech Republic and this is in Colorado, so… it’s about right.

  • "You see here jimmy, the boss didn’t bother to check whether the path was where it was planned to be 2 years ago.

Now, are we going take the initiative and place the flowerbed where it should be rather than where we were told to put it ?"

Designer probably got a dimension wrong on the drawing, and the pavers went “Alright, we’ll do it exactly as you say. Teach you to proofread next time…”

S_204 ,

As a builder, I can’t even begin to tell you how often I’ll come across something like that and ask the question only to get some ego driven response that you can tell they didn’t even review the situation.

‘as per the drawings boys’ can be a gratifying direction to give when you have the appropriate responses to CYA.

Awesome work! Always in awe of space and terrified of it at same time.

bleistift2 , to mildlyinfuriating in feels like you could just push it to the center..

I feel like there may be a reason to this. It looks like the flowers got recently moved. Maybe it was in the way of the main footpath that sees the most traffic? I can see it getting moved if people repeatedly tripped over it at night or when drunk.

Confused_Emus ,

Gods I hope we’re not to the point of coddling people that we’re now structuring our architecture to protect the drunks.

bleistift2 ,

If you protect the drunks you also protect the visually impaired, those with lacking motor skills, the chronically absent-minded, and Smombies. I do hope we protect the drunks.

Confused_Emus ,

So say we’re protecting those people then. Makes the hand holding a little more palatable.

hate2bme ,

I feel that this may be in a snowy region and a snow plow accidentally moved it in the winter.

can ,

That would be impressive.

anaximander ,

Pretty sure that’s not a movable planter. It’s literally a circle of bricks around a hole in the paving so you can plant flowers in the soil underneath. It’s not something you can push around. They built it like this, on purpose.

Puzzle_Sluts_4Ever ,

Also looks like there could be a drainage issue.

There is 100% a reason for this. Because it takes days, if not weeks, to build out a feature like this. And even the most autopilot zero shits given county worker will realize something is “off”. And, more importantly, realize that someone is likely to see it before they finish and insist they do it again.

I don’t buy the “in the way of the footpath” since that seems to be where a lot of paths converge.

I have that lens. I had no idea it was capable of that.

Remember kids, shitty code isn’t shitty until you find out how it came about.

This is very true, pretty much exactly what enterprise code is.

Omgarm , to pics in Boomslang (Dispholidus typus), a highly venomous snake from Southern Africa

Boomslang = tree snake in Dutch and I assume Afrikaans

coffeebiscuit ,

Tree snake in English.

GFGJewbacca ,

Definitely an Afrikaaner word. It’s also the name of an elevated bridge in the Kirstenbosch botanical gardens in Cape Town that goes through trees. It looks like and is named after the snake!

Going to Australia in a couple of weeks. Itinery is largely being shaped by my daughters' desire ti see Quokka om Rottnest.

Man, thats incredible!

berkeleyblue , to assholedesign in This is the entrance to the cafeteria in a US school. Absolute fuck you to the students if you ask me.
@berkeleyblue@lemmy.world avatar

The only time I ever saw one of these was as the side exit to our local Zoo. However it was part of the fence and right next to this thing was a gate that could be opened by staff (probably for Accesibility and maintenance reasons). Puting this as the entrance to a cafeteria is just useless…
