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.

Dude, I totally used to roller blade! But yeah, clearly the pic is old but I was referring to the "reddit" edit

Come to Paris, there's people rollerblading everywhere. Even some of the police.

I broke my arm rollerblading when I was in high school.

The pic is ancient. I saw it first around 25 years ago. The Reddit guy was labeled a ham radio operator.

[–]DoctorEmo 10 points11 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

When I first saw it it didn't have color and the reddit guy was a coal miner covered in soot.

I haven't seen it yet, but when I do it will be a PSA about how to spot an illegal clone, fresh from the underground flesh farm.

Where is the golf tan?

[–]ray13eezy 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

My friend got sunburned during a golf match back in high school. Red as a lobster on his arms and legs, minus his left hand and eyes (sunglasses). Freakin' hilarious. But the best part? He got his hair cut the next day, so the back of his neck had a huge tan line on it.

Can you guess which one doesn't get skin cancer when they are older?

[–]Aihwa -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The ones that have built up a tolerance to solar radiation? (so they don't get sunburns, which can result in cancer?)

[–]dirtymilk 13 points14 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I don't think it works that way.

[–]Aihwa -3 points-2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

While too much tanning can be harmful, its sunburns that can trigger major skin cancers. However, getting a normal, healthy tan is... healthy.

If only we were that fit...

[–]mattindustries 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I am definitely fitter than the reddit guy, but also a heck of a lot chubbier. Last weekend biking. I might burn a bajillion calories, but I eat 2 bajillion. Being fit doesn't always mean you look the part. :-(

[–]tyrghast 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Being fit doesn't always mean you look the part

Not in r/fitness. The only way you get up to their snuff is if you have 1% body fat and make a bunch of self posts about the proper way to groan while lifting.

[–]glamslam 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Somebody shop in a massive boner on the reddit guy, or else it's just not realistic.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

Tan gives you cancer anyway.

[–]sturdycocopuff 1 point2 points ago

Looks like that rollerblading woman has a serious case of the longgina.

[–]Cutler 1 point2 points ago

Ironically the Reddit user looks slightly better than the others in a swimsuit here.

[–]praisethellama 1 point2 points ago

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

It is important to reapply sunscreen often. You won't have any tan lines if you practice proper skin care! The more you know.

Who mountain bikes without a shirt on? thats just asking for it when you eat shit.

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points ago

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

Not only that, but as someone who mountain bikes 4 days a week I have ZERO tan. I am always in the woods in the shade. Maybe out West this applies.

[–]livetoride 3 points4 points ago

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

My arms are tan, usually my legs get covered in mud and dirt which is the best sunscreen in the world.

[–]hobbular 2 points3 points ago

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

I'm working on an awesome road bike tan. Unfortunately because I have no self respect, the only jersey I have is sleeveless so I don't get the cool arm tan, just strange-looking legs. :(

[–]right_foot_red 1 point2 points ago

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

I'm in Austin, TX and my and my buds usually wear boardshorts or bikinis because it gets up above 100 degrees most days. And that way we can jump in the creeks afterwards.

That reddit man has a full tan, by my standards.

[–]glassFractals 0 points1 point ago

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

And yet, the redditor is the only ones without ridiculous looking tan lines. WAY more appealing, even if you're all pale.

We need a porn star in there with a full tan.

Working outdoors with tshirt and long pants looks sort of like scuba diving, except legs are all white too. Going to look like an ass on my vacation. Redneck tan ftw!
