Come a little closer, and make sure to get a good long look at the hiking trail map.

I once got stung by an entire nest of wasps for the crime of writing down my minigolf score on the little wooden stand they elected to infest.

I got stung by a wasp because I touched it as a kid. Oops.

Interestingly, I remember getting stung, I remember crying, but I don’t remember what the pain felt like.

Maybe my memory of it isn't so good (I was little too} but I don't think it was that bad past the initial shock, I just remember being covered in hot, hard bumps that faded after a few hours

Hike the whole world. In and out. Twenty minute adventure.

They omitted Australia & Antarctica πŸ™

Oceanien is probably meant to include Australia

They always seem to be sun bleached

Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 165d

Well, they tried.

Oh, you mean a message board?

Like the term used to describe the thing we're currently posting on?

The_Picard_Maneuver@piefed.world · 11 pts · 165d (2 replies)

This one doesn't have a hat though.

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 165d

motion to get our board a hat

... just hang a fedora on your computer monitor, lol.

I thought this was a covered guillotine. You know, so the condemned billionaire doesn't get wet if it rains on their big day.

I LOVE these, big big fan! They're at all the public-land hiking trails around me. Nice little trail map, often dry-erase notes over the glass marking flooded trails or temporarily protected areas. History lessons or something about what makes the area special. Single mittens and kit left like a makeshift lost and found. You know you're in for a really good hike when they have a sign in book! Such an underrated low-cost public service.

I like them if kept up to date.

Lembot_0006@programming.dev · 5 pts · 165d (6 replies)

We don't have many of them where I live, but they never have any useful information.

DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 165d (5 replies)

Not literally "never", but often it's so cursory that it's useless, or written so poorly, it's hard to make sense of, or the display is old and faded.

However, when this structure is used as a community bulletin board, and the locals actually interact with it, it can be entertaining, at least.

where I live

I'm almost sure we live on the different sides of the planet, so you can expect that out experiences with... these things are different :)

LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 165d (3 replies)

Do yours have wasps on that side of the world? The people who pointed that out were so spot on I don't think I'll ever look at one of these again and not think wasps

Lembot_0006@programming.dev · 1 pts · 165d (2 replies)

Wasps exists here as species but are very rare. These "billboards" associate here with unsorted outdated data nobody asked for.

LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 165d (1 reply)

Ours are usually at trailheads in state/local parks that have the trail routes and a bit of information pertaining to what flora/fauna may be typical to the area. Maybe a bit of history

Lembot_0006@programming.dev · 2 pts · 165d

In my region they are mostly situated near government buildings with data about telephone numbers, working hours and some crazy gibberish. All is outdated.
