Submit your Halloween pumpkin pics to /r/horror's carving competition!

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.

Its cute until it grows up and decides to put a tusk through your face for no reason.

Hippos are awful creatures.

Not sure why you were downvoted, it's the truth. Hippos are some of the meanest animals on the planet.

This is a pygmy hippo. They're not nearly as aggressive and not even half as big at their biggest. Full size hippos will kill your ass dead; these will probably ignore you.

Single handedly Hippos kill more people in Africa then almost all other African predators combined.

Zoinks! I had non-lethal mischief in mind, perhaps I should've made that clarification...

Indeed. Hippos are the most dangerous wildlife in Africa by far.

He almost looks like a beaver. Strangely though, the hippo's closest living relatives are the whales and porpoises.

im the kind of guy who finds a spider in the house and actually takes it outside instead of killing it, but for some reason, i feel like i would probably try to murder that thing. i guesse i just really hate hippos. hmm.
