 =head2 Routing destination
 
 After you start a new route with methods like
-L<Mojolicious::Routes::Route/"get"> or L<Mojolicious::Routes::Route/"any">,
-you can also give it a destination in the form of a hash using the chained
-method L<Mojolicious::Routes::Route/"to">.
+L<Mojolicious::Routes::Route/"get">, you can also give it a destination in the
+form of a hash using the chained method L<Mojolicious::Routes::Route/"to">.
 
-  # GET /welcome -> {controller => 'foo', action => 'welcome'}
+  # /welcome -> {controller => 'foo', action => 'welcome'}
   $r->get('/welcome')->to(controller => 'foo', action => 'welcome');
 
-  # * /bye -> {controller => 'foo', action => 'bye'}
-  $r->any('/bye')->to(controller => 'foo', action => 'bye');
-
 Now if the route matches an incoming request it will use the content of this
 hash to try and find appropriate code to generate a response.
