Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

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.

And it all comes crashing because of one little cherry.

Life, which you so nobly serve, comes from destruction, disorder and chaos. Now take this empty glass. Here it is: peaceful, serene, boring. But if it is destroyed...

Look at all these little things, so busy now. Notice how each one is useful. What a lovely ballet ensues, so full of form and color.

[–]ZarZad 11 points12 points ago

Now, think about all those people that created them. Technicians, engineers, hundreds of people, who will be able to feed their children tonight, so those children can grow up big and strong and have little teeny children of their own, and so on and so forth.

Thus, adding to the great chain of life. You see, father, by causing a little destruction, I am in fact encouraging life.

If Im honest, I think youve received more upvotes from the quote itself, rather than the content

[–]DoesNotTalkMuch 3 points4 points ago

I watched this for a bit before I realized that it wasn't a real glass and that the physics didn't make sense.

is that computer generated? I've broken a lot of glass

[–]Tristanus 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yup. The environment, the lack of reflection of the environment, and the odd movement and breakage of the glass (all of it shatters but for all of it to shatter it would probably send parts flying farther and faster) give it away

[–]DamnColorblindness 1 point2 points ago

One of few gifs that I watched repeat more than 2-3 times.

Does anyone else hear the sound of breaking glass?

[–]Muddie 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

No, but if you tilt your head back, close your eyes, think of the saltiest food you can imagine and pretend to shake a salt shaker in your mouth you'll taste salt.

[–]zentrox 2 points3 points ago

It didn't work.

[–]sean2013 9 points10 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It typically works better when you do it repeatedly around other people. That way, your brain tricks itself into thinking that you are 'eating' with the other people. There is a direct link between friendship and food supply, that dates way back. In fact, the word 'companion' comes from the roots 'com' - with, and 'pan' bread! Try it out in front of your friends!

For some reason I see a playstation logo in the broken glass...

There is something very philosophical about this.

Doesn't shatter right, you can see where the geometry was cut and shattered with some sort of dynamic. It's 3D.

"Do you see this glass? I love this glass. It holds the water admirably. When I tap it, it has a lovely ring. When the sun shines on it, it reflects the light beautifully. But when the wind blows and the glass falls off the shelf and breaks or if my elbow hits it and it falls to the ground I say 'of course.' But when I know that the glass is already broken every minute with it is precious."
