Submit your Halloween pumpkin pics to /r/horror's carving competition!

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  6. No animated images. Please submit them to /r/gif, /r/gifs, or /r/reactiongifs instead.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

Wife asked me when I was coming home? I sent her a picture of a pile of paperwork on my desk. Later this evening she sent me this text. I was about to tear up. (i.imgur.com)

It's not a repost. The cat is from reddit. I sent it to my wife and now she has it as her background on her iphone. She sent the text a couple hrs ago.

Edit: link to how it went down http://imgur.com/9nECl via gmail

[–]lahwran_ 5 points6 points ago

actually that does make it a repost - but it also makes it, at least in my book, an okay repost. you're adding meaning to it, not just saying "here it is again".

[–]Philokalia[S] 2 points3 points ago

The most exciting part of all this is she's not a redditor, yet she's doing something like a redditor would and just unaware of it.

[–]lahwran_ 4 points5 points ago

it's almost like it's a human thing to like cute animals ...

[–]Philokalia[S] 1 point2 points ago

If only there were more humans out there. I'm still bummed out and disgusted after watching 'Half the Sky' documentary on PBS (this past weekend). It was about womens rights and man do we have a lot of sick f'krs out there.

[–]lahwran_ 1 point2 points ago

yeah, we're still growing up as a species, aren't we? :(

[–]Philokalia[S] 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, we are. :(

[–]tadowguy 9 points10 points ago

If she wants to get you home I'd advise a different pussy shot.

[–]Philokalia[S] 0 points1 point ago

meow what are you talking about?

[–]tinycookie 11 points12 points ago

Hey OP, thought this was a good post, shame the comments are marked up with repost, you seem like you are genuine in your post.

So I upvoted. Have a good one.

[–]Philokalia[S] 1 point2 points ago

Thank you....I will try and show the whole text scenario this evening.

[–]Philokalia[S] 0 points1 point ago

Here's how it happened. Sorry I e-mailed the text conversation to my e-mail and then cut & paste.

great, now I feel sad too.

[–]Philokalia[S] 0 points1 point ago

Yeah sorry about that. That's why I tried to leave early today.

[–]PistolPete23 5 points6 points ago

You and your wife must have an awesome relationship. LOVED the picture.

[–]Philokalia[S] 0 points1 point ago

Thanks! Yeah we've been best-friends for about five years and finally got married this June :) Here's a link to how it all went down. http://imgur.com/9nECl sorry I didn't know how else to extract it off our phones so I just forwarded the info. from the text.

[–]deja-vu-comment 4 points5 points ago

Electrocat is pensive.

[–]sunkenOcean01 0 points1 point ago

Why do I feel like I've seen this before?

[–]tpot6 1 point2 points ago

sorry to be rude, but does anyone have the original link to the photo, sans text at the bottom.

[–]Philokalia[S] 0 points1 point ago

not as grammatically correct as you but yes very close. http://imgur.com/9nECl do you know how to extract original text messages and post them? I know what you used was a iphone message maker but... Thanks :)

You must either be in jail or overseas. If you're in the military, I'd like to remind you that real heroes choose to serve, knowing the sacrifices they'll make, for the betterment of their country and the safety and freedom of their fellow Americans. They don't throw it back in someone's face expecting a pity party.

[–]Douggiedc 3 points4 points ago

And if they are in jail they don't deserve internet.

[–]jeridaraven 2 points3 points ago

Military spouse here. My husband and I signed up for this military lifestyle. Before he joined we were like any regular couple, never having spent much time apart. Now we have nearly a year of separation under our belts. Regardless of the length of time apart, IT SUCKS BEING APART. That goes for ANY couple. I would never, EVER, compare our military life to that of a civilian couple. Hell, I still miss my husband if he has to work late or when he has 24 hour duty. I really don't like when military spouses try to one-up civilian spouses when they experience a short separation. It's uncalled for and it makes us look bad.
