      It suggests that whoever keeps trying to force for the pathing is an idiot

        But even when they caved and paved the desire path (good), a new desire path was created.

          Look at the original desire path it goes to the corner the paved path is offset 30 degrees because people want to access the crosswalk not the sidewalk then the crosswalk

          Whoever was trying to force it was an idiot, and people are savages.

          (Although I actually question if it would end this way)

      it shows that people tend to make things too straight and geometric, when they should instead be curvy and organic.

        Yeah, but if you make things too curvy they no longer fit together well. And can be hard to build depending on the construction methods used.

            I bet you just say your own name.

            Slowly, pronouncing every syllable like it is Skyrim and you are executing a shout.
