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.

  • 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.

A little melted butter and lemon juice knocks these babies down to size.

The coconut oil they eat is stored as fat in their little asspouch thingy. That is the most delicious fat in the world.

Say it out loud. Say you love their delicious asspouch.

This info, coming from someone named Fetus_Cheese, both tempts and frightens me.

Exactly my thoughts. People are disgusted by these things. I salivate lika Pavlovs dogs.

It's cause they look like a HUGE bug. I'd eat it don't get me wrong, but until it's dead I don't want to go near it.

Read multiple times. I'm now listening to the audio books. I highly recommend giving them a listen.

Just over-grown hermit crabs, literally, they're popular pets in tropical places, people basically keep them in rabbit hutches outside, lol.

Dear Jesus, that's even scarier-looking than a camel spider.

[–]burtonguster 1 point2 points ago

Yeah but what Camel Spiders are capable of is the most terrifying thing ever.

[–]pixelplumber 0 points1 point ago

I don't know, I reckon japanese spider crabs are scarier.

But you will never encounter one of those, since the most shallow water they inhabit is 160ft.

[–]lonely_puppet 0 points1 point ago

I WANT ONEEE! To me they are kinda cute, plus they steal shiny things. You could have an unholy army of theif crabs that roam the streets at night.

What. The FUCK. is THAT?!

Here's mine from Zanzibar last fall..

They really are that big. And fast. And mean. Some researchers believe that they ate Amelia Earhart. Presumably after she died, but who the fuck knows.

But they taste good.

"The front-most pair of legs has large claws used to open coconuts, and these claws (chelae) can lift objects up to 29 kilograms (64 lb)." (www.wikipedia.org)

Do they taste like coconut?

[–]voiceinthedesert 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I believe they are so named for their ability to crack coconuts, but I could be wrong.

[–]Markus_Antonius 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Just looked it up... they can indeed crack coconuts. Also they climb palm trees and clip off the coconuts in order to eat them. Never knew these critters existed before today, fascinating!! :-)

[–]hibeardy 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Now, not only do I have to worry about coconuts falling on my head, I have to worry about these giant fuckers sneak attacking me from above

[–]Markus_Antonius 0 points1 point ago

Two points for you sir for making me laugh for the first time today ;-)

[–]3idvet 0 points1 point ago

And even worse they like stealing shiny objects from humans like pots and utensils.

[–]thistlej 0 points1 point ago

They can crack coconut? My God, I'm glad that the most dangerous animal where I live is a moose. At least those bastards don't invade my garbage.

Easy on the elipses, OP. It just makes you sound really diffident... and unsure... with your voice trailing off...

Maybe for you. Judging from a lot of the comments in this thread, not everyone has seen it. So chill out, brah. Maybe go for a walk? Or read that book that you've been meaning to do for the last 2 months.

Reddit will still be here for you when you get back, we promise! :)
