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.

This says Romney wants a chair to have his shoes security wanded for metal objects, and Obama gave a dude a bump. I see nothing more.

***By the way I'm not a supporter of either. I would choose Obama over Romney though. But this picture says nothing.

[–]cuteman 2 points3 points ago

I think OP thinks Romney was getting his shoes shinned. Lol

[–]starveling 2 points3 points ago

This says literally nothing.

[–]Smokes35 0 points1 point ago

Hey lets take one photo of one guy out of the tens of thousands that have been taken and another photo of another guy out of his tens of thousands and it'll be an completely and totally accurate depiction of both! YEAH!

[–]Lil_Nigga -1 points0 points ago

Look how awkward Obama looks in that photo. It definitely looks like he was trying to pose for that.

[–]asharkey3 2 points3 points ago

Or he's in mid turn. Looks more like he just started to walk away to me.

[–]Lil_Nigga -1 points0 points ago

I don't know, just the facial expressions of both of them and how the guy is just staring at the "fist pound". Doesn't seem natural.

[–]asharkey3 1 point2 points ago

I'd say fist bumping the President isn't that natural haha

[–]Perdita101 1 point2 points ago

Romney looks not a bit awkward having his shoes shined by a lackey, almost seems natural to him.

[–]Lil_Nigga -1 points0 points ago

Do you think President Obama shines his own shoes? I really doubt that he does.

[–]Perdita101 -1 points0 points ago

Since he has become an elected official, most likely not. But to compare them from youth, which would imagine enjoyed those luxuries?

[–]Lil_Nigga 3 points4 points ago

True, I just did a quick search about that picture and discovered it was actually a TSA screening. That is one of their wands they use for screening.

[–]Perdita101 -1 points0 points ago

Ha! Guess my point still stands though. Just to find a picture of him actually getting his shoes shined!

[–]Pockaden 2 points3 points ago

Luxuries like super expensive private schools? I love how all Obama supporters think he grew up in poverty. He had a very wealthy upbringing.

[–]Perdita101 -2 points-1 points ago

Paid for with scholarships and student loans as opposed to Romney's family money.

[–]Pockaden 1 point2 points ago

I guess they paid for the limo he took to school every day too eh? Oh and the trips he took around the world? Get off Obamas nuts already he did not hang the moon.

[–]Perdita101 -1 points0 points ago

I'm not saying these facts completely define both men or prove their worth, but you can't argue with the economic circumstances of how they grew up. The picture posted tries to portray, rather ham-fistedly, this very cliche. Also, don't forget, "cliches are cliches for a reason"

[–]Pockaden 1 point2 points ago

Actually I can. Obama did NOT grow up poor.

[–]Perdita101 -1 points0 points ago

I never stated that he grew up poor or in poverty. But comparatively, one came from money and one didn't. Anyway, I think this conversation has strayed a bit from its flippant beginning. My original comments were meant in a more tongue-in-cheek way.

[–]pauldy 2 points3 points ago

Except that's a TSA agent wanding him for security not polishing is shoes.

[–]Perdita101 -3 points-2 points ago

Already discussed. See comments above if you missed it.
