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.

Correct me if im wrong.... but isnt forward typically represented as being to the right? Which would mean lincon was looking to the future, while everyone else is going backwards

Actually, isn't forward the way you are standing? So aren't they all facing forward?

Sorta relevant.

*Maybe nsfw. Language and all.

You might be correct, but Lincoln was still shot in the back of the head. Maybe the other coins could help identify the real killer or killers...

"Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?"

Pretty funny! And I did not know that.

My mind is blown...so was his.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's intentional; he faces a different way because he was killed in office. It's like the iconography in civil war statues: generals who died are portrayed on a rearing horse, those who were wounded on a three-point stance, and those who made it through unscathed with all four hooves on the ground.

And that's. What I get for not checking my work...

I was really hoping to find him facing the other way when I looked it up.

Except the FDR half dollar and the Susan B. Anthony silver dollar are also facing to the right...

TIL left is forward.

Mission accomplished, now the League of Robots will never know what hit them, as we come "forward" from the right.

Nothing funnier than Assassination!

Lincoln should be on the left facing all of them - always watching his back.
