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.

The most striking part of this picture is that there are at least three people standing there taking photos of this instead of helping the guy with a freaking *knife in his face***!!

The cop I can understand, maybe he has to document it for evidence. But the person with the cell phone and the one taking this picture? I can only assume they're medical professionals that should be, you know, doing something.

They're medical professionals but, above all, they're /r/pics fiends.

... I think the knife in the head is still the most striking part of the picture

Perhaps waiting for x-rays to make sure removing the knife won't cause more damage, waiting for anaesthetic to take effect. You can't just rush in and pull a thing like that out.

For an injury like that they would most likely have to take him into surgery rather than do it in the emergency room. So I guess while they waited for him to go into surgery: PICTURE TIME!

I don't think I'd be so calm with a knife in my face.

hey doc! You think maybe you could put your f'ing camera phone away and remove the knife from my face now?

Thanks.

This should probably have a [Gore] or [NSFW] tag. I mean, come on! Did you really think a picture of someone stabbed in the face needs no warning?

NSFL tag, c'mon!
