Do not:

  • Climb
  • Play on
  • Around pipe
[–] biggerbogboy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

It indeed is round

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 38 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Luckily, that was just the decoy pipe. Real one's buried underneath.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 32 points 2 weeks ago

This is the pipe that only works with people on it, and the sign is just using reverse psychology to make sure there are always people on it.

[–] argon@lemmy.today 30 points 2 weeks ago

Do not climb.

Play on and around pipe.

I once saw a guy steady himself with a "do not feed the animals" sign in order to reach across a fence to give an apple to a deer.

[–] AtoMops@feddit.org 1 points 2 weeks ago

Then the guy and the deer were thrown out of Paradise(tm)

*Not meant as insult to women! Have to mention this these days ._.'

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 21 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

There's like 20 people having fun on the pipe.

And there was probably 3 people who decided to place that little sign.

dEmOcRaCy.

When the pipe suddenly burst into fecal matter coveting everyone in other people's feces democracy would be seen as a great thing.

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

"Pipe can burst and shoot poop. Stay safe"

Up to the people to take the chance.

[–] daniskarma@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That works for that example.

What if it's an internet cable and playing around it could harm others and not you? Up to people to take other people's chances?

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Then bury the cable and not have it on a beach that is obviously used for recreational purposes.

Companies are not more important than people.

[–] daniskarma@lemmy.dbzer0.com -3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Who said the cable was put there by a company or is used by a company.

It could be put there by people and used by the people.

[–] spooky2092@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 2 weeks ago

Then the people should bury it.

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I really hope you lost your ‘/s’, unironically this is the mentality that brought us the Trump administration.

[–] joyjoy@lemm.ee 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That was implied by the fluctuating case of "dEmOcRaCy"

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works -1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I wish you were correct. Unfortunately it only implies the meme you posted and lacks the context you are ascribing. It could be taken either way on the Internet.

I'm saying people don't want authoritarian people telling them what to do.

Give information instead:

  • "Pipe can get very hot in summer"
  • "Pipe contains dangerous chemicals"

I don't want some government or people telling me what I can and can't do because they were able to grab power and call it democratic.

[–] NoForwardslashS@sopuli.xyz 6 points 2 weeks ago

Please don't go near the super secret pipeline full of tasty melted chocolate for Willy Wonka's factory.

[–] frostysauce@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

The problem is people are stupid. As evidenced by the picture.

I don't want some government or people telling me what I can and can't do

OK, you would be one of the children in the picture.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

To be fair, the "and" makes this very confusing. Should probably be an "or" or "nor".

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

well, it says "Do not [...] Pipe" so whatever is in the middle usually doesn't matter, except for the intended meaning of "leave the fucking pipe alone"

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

😆 you'd think people would understand that, yeah

[–] AngrySquirrel@lemm.ee 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Is this a "waste water" discharge pipe?

[–] xzot746@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Probably, and it looks like it doesn't go out far enough. lol, just kidding the water is probably that colour from chemicals.

/s?

[–] 0x01@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I bet that's wicked hot on sunny summer days, I can feel the burning black plastic

[–] TimeNaan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

It's water cooled

[–] wabafee@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

most likely poop.
