What did they think was going to happen…

People walking between the bus stop (outside the picture) and the building (on the right) don’t like taking the long route around this huge green circle. It was pretty obvious that this would happen sooner or later.
I believe you, it just sounds strange.
English is a strange language 🤷
In Dutch we call it "elephant's path" (loosely translated of course). And I think that's beautiful.
For some reason I now have Colonel Hathi's March from The Jungle Book playing in my head :D
That I can agree with fully.
I sort of like the strangeness, because it makes the concept feel stickier in my brain; I read "desire path" and my brain stumbles on the odd grammar and I spend longer on that concept than I would have done. It makes it feel like the noun-phrase exists as greater than the sum of the two words that make it up.
You get used to human.
