I used to find them growing up. The really old ones. spotting ancient bottles, some with the contents inside after 50 years. That was always interesting.
Reminds me of an old joke about the dyslexic husband being asked to wind the clock and put out the cat before coming to bed. Choose your own punch lines.
Reminds me of a Benny Hill gag, where someone is told to “turn out the soup on the stove.” You can guess what happens.

I became an opponent to open burning when I inhaled burning poison ivy. I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy. Well, maybe———-
