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 is kid is much smarter than I am

This is kid is much smarter

This is kid is

[–]matttebbetts 250 points251 points ago

It took me reading your comment, then re-reading the title, then re-reading your comment again to finally notice the mistake.

[–]FelineJuggler4 62 points63 points ago

It took me reading your comment, then re-reading the title, then re-reading your comment again to finally notice the mistake.

I didn't even know there was a mistake.

[–]jreatherford 4 points5 points ago

when you see it....

[–]pooplog888 9 points10 points ago

It took me reading his comment, not understanding, reading your comment, looking back at the tittle, and then finally getting it

[–]GlowWolf 8 points9 points ago

hehe.. tittle.

[–]istalkyurmom 70 points71 points ago

This is kid

[–]schafer09 39 points40 points ago

Come in dogfort!

[–]b4n4n4p4nc4k3s 14 points15 points ago

I'd rather not.

[–]Phoequinox 22 points23 points ago

Poor Colby.

[–]itak365 2 points3 points ago

Copy, Kid Leader, this is Dog Actual.

[–]Largusgatus -2 points-1 points ago

acualy is dolan

[–]Zi1djian 2 points3 points ago

gooby pls

[–]maxi206 -2 points-1 points ago

Hello!

[–]Elliotto 18 points19 points ago

I imagine it in a Russian/Eastern European accent with poor punctuation.

'This is kid!' the man says, aggressively pointing at the paper, 'Is much smarter than I am.'

[–]UnnecessaryRussian 22 points23 points ago

Этот ребенок на много раз умнее меня.

Étot rebyónok na mnógo raz umnyéye menyá.

"This kid on many times smarter me."

IPA: /ˈɛtət rʲɪˈbʲɵnək na ˈmnogə ras umˈnʲeje mʲɪˈnʲæ/

[–]CoolGuySimilarToNeo 7 points8 points ago

I like this account.

[–]SpelingTroll 5 points6 points ago

There is no linking verb in Russian, so it would be the other way around "This kid much smarter than I".

[–]AphoticSketch 7 points8 points ago

My mind automatically deleted the extra "is'" from each sentence, because ain't no one got time for that shit.

[–]djigreg -1 points0 points ago

All this is sentence does is this confirms the statement is.

[–]chazzeromus -1 points0 points ago

Grammatical auto-correct in the subconscious cannot be turned off :/

[–]SierraNovember1 38 points39 points ago

/r/karmaconspiracy

[–]LLordRSom 16 points17 points ago

Why is the black squiggle on top of the "child's" answer, but more importantly why do I even care?

[–]SierraNovember1 17 points18 points ago

The same thinking of why is a child given a piece of loose leaf to answer an out of context question? Or why does a child with the capability for such an abstract question write like a 6 year old? And why does that child know how to spell island with the silent 's' or apply the article rule of 'an' before a noun beginning with a vowel?

[–]TysGirlLola 9 points10 points ago

'An' before a word starting with a vowel is one of the first things you learn at school.

[–]Differently 8 points9 points ago

The phrase "an island" appears within the question, so the child could have referred to that spelling while writing the answer.

Also, it says in the header that the child is especially smart.

[–]naranjaspencer 2 points3 points ago

Yes, but, I laughed so he gets an upvote.

If I can suspend my disbelief for movies, I can suspend my disbelief for Reddit.

[–]Smackaroonee -3 points-2 points ago

Your first questions makes sense; the other points don't hold.

I hear a lot of abstract reasoning from people with childish handwriting. The spelling is correct because it's written in class, where it would be corrected.

[–]orbella 0 points1 point ago

it's where 'Why' has been underlined

[–]MrRobotoll 1 point2 points ago

The way the kid writes his S looks quite similar to the teacher's S. :O

Also that squiggle is bugging me.

[–]sleeeeeeep 23 points24 points ago

Why is the teacher's question hand written on notebook paper?

[–]American-American 28 points29 points ago

Because its bullshit. Welcome to the internet.

[–]Krieggman 3 points4 points ago

Who said anything about a teacher?

[–]ZeroGSpaceCow 1 point2 points ago

Because teachers often write the question on the board, then make the students copy down the question and then write their answer.

[–]bluebiscuit 0 points1 point ago

The handwriting is very different between the two. This is likely not the case.

EDIT: but honestly this is probably fake. It seems rather odd for a teacher to inquire about a child's "hatred" toward another person. Usually they pull the "You shouldn't hate anybody!" card. At least that's how it was when I was in school

[–]DrChoppah 22 points23 points ago

I would rather be on AnisLand

[–]VampireOnTitus 5 points6 points ago

Better than Pen Island.

[–]Corryvrecken -5 points-4 points ago

I saw that.

[–]Plume_Latraverse 2 points3 points ago

This is no kids handwriting

[–]DirkNowitzki41 2 points3 points ago

Am i the only one who read this as "anisland"

[–]deming 1 point2 points ago

That handwriting is neater than mine, so the only conclusion I can come to is that this is fake....

[–]Speaking-of-segues 0 points1 point ago

I'm gonna steal this and put it on r/funny

[–]skatingmichael 2 points3 points ago

you wrote it yourself

[–]Dusted_Hoffman 4 points5 points ago

Fake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[–]BorgImplants 0 points1 point ago

Watch out, he's a shark!

[–]getdatpooty 2 points3 points ago

A+

[–]acardboardduck -1 points0 points ago

I'm sure there's a great story as to why this was asked

[–]speaktodragons -1 points0 points ago

It goes both ways

[–]brownpa -1 points0 points ago

Still don't get it. Saw the mistake on the title. But not in the kids answer

[–]wickedseamstress 0 points1 point ago

I seriously laughed out loud. Not a small shoulder shake, smirk or chuckle. Just full on laughter.

[–]nigromante 0 points1 point ago

Cannibalism is quite normal in little kids, true fact.

[–]supaphly42 1 point2 points ago

Having been bitten by small children, I can verify this.

[–]Cregga -1 points0 points ago

This kid is smarter than I am. Your grammar hurts my brain.

[–]Acdcrockandroll178 0 points1 point ago

I read his response as anisland.

[–]octopus_organs 0 points1 point ago

don't forget about the awesome hate sex.

[–]Tsain 0 points1 point ago

I thought this kid wrote Anis Land haha

[–]ZeroGSpaceCow -2 points-1 points ago

I can't stand these "kids say the darndest things" posts. Partly because probably 75% are fake, but also because I don't like kids. I don't buy into the whole "kids are more insightful than they're given credit for!" mentality. They're not. They're little idiots who usually just parrot the things their parents say.

[–]cheesetrain 0 points1 point ago

That's not how a child writes. I hate this so much.

[–]StayGold1850 0 points1 point ago

Anyone else read it as Anis Land?

[–]badgarok725 0 points1 point ago

I'm not a fan of Kim Kardashian, she doesn't lead a good life. I would love being stuck on an island with her though so that we could bang all the time

[–]Mike2kmc 0 points1 point ago

I would rather be left alone with Justin bieber so I can eat him :)

[–]jalisama 0 points1 point ago

I like that the teacher graded it with a positive mark (asterix implying "good job" I assume?). THAT'S THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX, TIMMY.

[–]Evref 1 point2 points ago

hmm, teacher created scenario whereby kid can more comfortably accept cannibalism.

[–]ClearlyDoesntGetIt 0 points1 point ago

Apparently...

[–]cheesedick25 0 points1 point ago

Anthony Hopkins as a child?!?

[–]bags_groove -1 points0 points ago

this is not a kid's handwriting.

[–]MuggleRedditor 0 points1 point ago

Wow. why did I never think of that!? I like the way you think kid, I like the way you think

[–]Nohmidas -1 points0 points ago

Stay within the lines damn kid!

[–]cathouse -1 points0 points ago

i just laughed out loud...so hard.

[–]i_internets_good 0 points1 point ago

I agree with this logic

[–]Roomy -2 points-1 points ago

I would rather be on anis....

I would rather be on anis land....

I would rather be on anis land...

I read that wrong three times before my brain stopped screwing with me and I was able to see it correctly. At first I thought he was just misspelling anus. I dunno why my brain thought that more plausible than two separate words.

[–]al3xrmz -3 points-2 points ago

Cute.

[–]Jester00 -2 points-1 points ago

I praise and fear this kid.

[–]prplmze -2 points-1 points ago

I would like to hang out with this kid. In a place that is landlocked with a lot of food.

Holy shit he or she was thinking!

[–]Highbard -2 points-1 points ago

Not at all where I thought it was going: "...so that I at least have someone to talk to." or something. But that?

[–]Jigsus -2 points-1 points ago

That writing is very scary. They look like the scribbles of a madman.

[–]superanth -2 points-1 points ago

And the teacher justly gave the kid a star.

[–]Obi-StacheKenobi -1 points0 points ago

not what i expected, well played kiddo

[–]Ryomu -2 points-1 points ago

Maybe the kids name is "Is"?

[–]figman2 0 points1 point ago

Could of sworn it said "anis island"

[–]nate3779 0 points1 point ago

He hasn't even lord of the flies yet

[–]Peanutbutterlobster 0 points1 point ago

I read that as " anusisland"

[–]Bluedemonfox -2 points-1 points ago

With someone I hate so at least there would be some rivalry to keep things interesting.

[–]webbeco 0 points1 point ago

I thought that "an island" was actually a misspelled "anus land".

[–]camisadelgolf -1 points0 points ago

Hello?

[–]donjuanmegatron 1 point2 points ago

Damn! You are illiterate.

[–]BuzzPsycho -2 points-1 points ago

Yes, yes he is....

[–]andshewas_45 -2 points-1 points ago

Smart kid!

[–]Notemy -3 points-2 points ago

Nobody said it was an island without any food...

[–]Jejoisland -5 points-4 points ago

Thats pretty stupid actually

[–]meatr0o -4 points-3 points ago

you're such a fucking faggot NO KID DID THIS UNLESS THE KID IS YOU. Who would ask that question to a kid? Who would ask any question to any kid by first writing it into their own notebook? Just fucking man up and post a screenshot of this as your facebook status and pretending it was one of your friends like everyone else.
