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.

Andre the Giant kinda looks like the maid Arnold was banging

Here is an article about andre and his drinking habits. He truly is the greatest.

On one tour, Andre’s Japanese sponsors rewarded him with a case of expensive plum wine. Andre settled down in the back of the bus and started drinking. Four hours later, the bus arrived at the next venue, and Andre was polishing off the last bottle of wine.

Sixteen bottles of wine in four hours is a considerable feat, but it gets better. Andre proceeded straight to the ring and wrestled three matches, including a twenty-man battle royal. The 16 bottles of plum wine had no discernible effect on Andre’s in-ring ability. By the end of the evening, Andre had sweated off the wine and found himself growing cranky. He dispatched Hogan for a few cases of beer. Hogan hurried to do as Andre asked, knowing from painful experience that a drunken Giant was a happy Giant, and a happy Giant was less likely to fracture some vital part of an opponent’s anatomy in a fit of grumpiness.

My long time neighbor and his father were wrestlers with Andre a long long time ago (Len and Joey Rossi for anyone that cares). When he would go to a bar, his choice of drink was always a pitcher of some sort of beer. He would drink directly from it. It was essentially like someone drinking out of a standard beer mug.

He would have been a perfect choice to play Hagrid in the movies.

So, I had to look up who Wilt Chamberlain was (fail on my part, right). And it was JUST them that I realized that Wilt from Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends was named after him. TIL.

It saddens me to learn that it is even possible for someone to not know who Wilt Chamberlain is. The guy is legendary. He was arguably the most dominant offensive player in the history of basketball (you know, that sport with over 2 billion viewers). He also claimed to have had sex with over 20,000 women which would rank him high in the category of "most laid man in human history" if it was even close to true.

It saddens you that the rest of the world doesn't know the name of some NBA player who told outrageous lies like he invented the question mark and slept with 20,000 women?

It's kinda like not knowing who Pele is.

[–]turbog3 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

naah, come on, everyone knows who Pele is... he's like the most famous player in that sport, you know, the sport with over 5 billion viewers... ;)

[–]yoda133113 0 points1 point ago

As I recall, basketball is the second most popular sport in the world (I could be wrong on this, but I seem to recall reading this). And Wilt Chamberlain is arguably the best player ever, and definitely top 2.

Actually, its believedthat he is significantly shorter than that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold_Schwarzenegger#Height

Those are the clothes that Andre wore in the movie as well.

Credit where credit is due. He's right, it is a cool article.

It takes a special type of duo to make Arnold Schwarzenegger look small.

eeuauaughhhuauaahh!!

When I read the title, I thought you meant the Conan OBrien show. Damn.

This picture made my day (I see arnie everyday)

puts hand up

I didn't see that thread posted over a year ago. I'm glad this was posted again. I'm sorry that you, as champion of the internet, have seen every single thing ever posted on reddit but I think a repost after a year isn't really hurting anyone. I don't think he was sitting there, waiting to post for a year, waiting for his time to shine.

I'm not complaining--I'm just reposting comments (with their source).

edit: BTW, check out OP's history. Bunches of posts, spaced out just long enough to upload pics to imgur. All are reposts, and most of them have been on the front page.

If mass-posting from an aggregator built from reddit pics doesn't bother anyone I guess I have the problem.

Ok, so reposts happen, sure. But if you're going to do it, at least try to come up with a new title.

Andre could do that on his own, well, not anymore, but he could!

What's amazing is my friend has this picture as his backdrop, but it's too blurry to see who was who. We were talking about it just two weeks ago as we were watching "The Stoned Age."

Even more amazingly he's not a Redditor.

Thank you Reddit, I will now look so cool when I explain it to him.

I think, given that you've submitted this to /r/pics, we can tell it's a pic.
