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.

These act as indicators. You can see very quickly if the crack gets any bigger. As an example, they used this here to monitor and check if more of the houses would slide into the lake.

I think you're wrong. The better way to do what you're saying is just put two dots on the pavement at a predetermined distance from each other, say 10 cm. Then you can come back and measure the distance later to see if it moved. You don't use tape. I've seen this picture posted before and somebody explained that 3M actually did develop a tape that helps to prevent the gap from widening further.

I want to upvote the first part of your post, and downvote the last part. Actually I assume you are being sarcastic with the 3m thing, so upvotes all around

Do you see the earth splitting in half? No? Then it works, leave it as it is.

This has been proven to stop earthquakes on fault lines as well.

I've heard people say a broken heart, but I think they meant herpes...

Duct Tape cures warts.

I can confirm this works, my doctor told me to try it, it's hard to keep on at night as you get clammy and it won't stick, but yes it got rid of my penis wart.

...you duct taped your dick...voluntarily?

No it was on my foot actually, I just wanted an excuse to use strikethrough.

According to Mythbusters, you can't stop a car with a duct-tape wall :(

[–]Ludikalo 1 point2 points ago

They simply didn't use enough duct tape, then.

[–]i8wg 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

IIRC they used just so much tape that they were able to unroll on a single day.

It's useless for duct work.

[–]brmlyklr 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

That's what I was about to say. Not even a good repost at that.

Probably not, but you're the only one to care.

Last week, some water seeped up thru the cracks in the basement floor during Tropical Storm Lee. Really messed up the family room. I was looking for a way to fix this, when.... Heyyyyyyyyyyyy............

If you can't duct it, fuck it.

Don't worry. I'm sure they repaved this road many years ago.

At least they're doing something about it. In Oakland, potholes are sometimes just outlined with yellow spray paint. That's it. That's all that's done.

Thank God they fixed it lest so many mothers' backs get broken.
