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.

Flair confuses me. It just seemed to show up one day, everywhere I looked, with pretty much zero announcement (outside of "Hey! This subreddit now has flair, too!"). It doesn't appear to be user-editable in most cases, so I'm typically left just scratching my head.

[–]rcxdude 2 points3 points ago

it had been done for a while before the feature came along (e.g. in /r/AskScience) , by editing the subreddit CSS, but that was time consuming because a mod had to do it, and eventually you ran into issues with the size of the CSS file.

    [–]tevoul 70 points71 points ago

    sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

    It was most definitely fake.

    Even ignoring the fact that spiders that large in general can't jump like that and the fact that if a spider is scared the last thing it would do would be to jump toward the threat with it's back facing it, you can tell it's fake by it's trajectory and by how much the guy moves on impact.

    The trajectory is at a downward angle, not straight off the wall and falling off like you'd expect. When it hits the bowl (or whatever he's holding) it pushes the bowl back as if it had hit the bowl at high speed and with a lot of mass. Both those point toward it being pulled by a fishing line through a hole in the bowl by someone off camera.

    [–]Nougat 26 points27 points ago

    I would like to add these observations:

    If the human subject in the clip is wearing a motorcycle helmet as protection, why would he also choose to wear only a short-sleeved t-shirt? Surely if a motorcycle helmet is available, there's a jacket of some kind in the house.

    Why would he be trying to uselessly maneuver a giant knife in what's likely his off hand while trying to capture the "spider"? Not only does the giant knife serve no functional purpose in this context, it makes the risk of injury greater.

    [–]Kalmah666 18 points19 points ago

    sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

    Id bet that, if a spider this large jumped at you, you would fall back too (hell, I would heh) so the whole "Pushing the bowl back" might be more of a "OH WTF IS THIS... FUCK" twitch than the actual spider jumping in...

    with that said... I want this to be a fake... wtf...

    [–]tevoul -1 points0 points ago

    sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

    If it were a reaction it wouldn't happen instantly when the spider hit the bowl and it wouldn't precede the rest of his freakout reaction.

      Not jump toward a threat? Fuck you very hard. I lived in North Carolina for 25 years in a VERY humid area (the area behind our house regularly flooded) and we had things called "Water Bugs". They are basically cockroaches. But those fuckers would jump, fly or run toward you if you came near them. I still don't know why to this day but I still hate those little fuckers. I now live in Colorado where we have no bugs because no bug is crazy enough to live in such dry weather.

      I had a huge fucking spider jump about three feet in the air when my friend tried to throw a manila envelope over it to squash it. Spider was about 5" across with leg span, and that asshole jumped three feet STRAIGHT UP, at my friend, pivot mid-air, and land on the goddamn wall. JUMPED AND LANDED ON THE WALL.

      Want to know why I NOPE so hard at spiders? THAT'S WHY. Not jump toward a threat, my pasty white ass...

      [–]yeah_me 0 points1 point ago

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

      Your description sounds as though your spider was jumping AWAY from a threat (manila envelope) coming at it...had it jumped TOWARD it, it would have just gotten hit by the envelope, not landed on the wall (presumably above) it.

      [–]motorcityvicki 2 points3 points ago

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

      Friend standing over spider (much, much braver friend than I -- I was on top of a bunk bed going "hell no, hell no" over and over) to drop manila envelope down onto it. Spider jumped up towards friend (she didn't have time to drop it) and only slightly away. It landed on the wall beside her at about mid-torso level.

      Later research determined it was some sort of wolf spider (though I did not participate in this research, so it is second-hand information). This was in mid-Michigan, so no tarantulas or anything like that. We were employees at a summer camp.

      Sorry, it's fake. Also not a T. blondi. I'm very familiar with tarantulas and although I don't own a T. blondi I do own several similarly sized and large species such as L. parahybana. Tarantulas that size do not rest like that and they definitely do NOT jump like that. It's a toy on a string.

      Can spiders that big even climb on a sheer wall?

      [–]al_fe2o3 14 points15 points ago

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

      Sure, they have groups of hairs on their feet that stick to relatively smooth surfaces in addition to small claws on the front. My 9" L. parahybana climbs straight up the plexiglass of its cage.

      However, the height of the cage is only 10" (6" from the top of the substrate) because spiders that large are much more fragile than most people think. Falling a foot or two will splat your prized pet.

      [–][deleted] 5 points6 points ago

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

      The Asian species (primarily stuff like Poecilotherias, known as "pokies" in the trade) are much better at climbing and surviving modest falls. The goliath species (lasiodoras, pamphobeteus, theraphosa spp.) from South America, OTOH, are much more readily injured. The abdomen will rupture, things like that. This is why I keep all my monsters in low cages, so there is no chance for them to climb and get injured if they slip.

      I don't care quite so much for the arboreal species; they're neat, but they're just not my thing.

      Tarantulas of a similar size in South America have been known to catch birds by leaping into the wind in order to fly at them.

      [–]al_fe2o3 0 points1 point ago

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

      No. Tarantulas do not "leap into the wind" to "fly at" birds. The large size of some species of tarantula allows them a larger selection of prey such as frogs, snakes, lizards, small mammals and even small birds. However, the large size is also a limiting factor in their movement and hardiness in a fall. All of these prey are caught on the ground or in a tree as they have horrible vision and rely almost completely on vibration to catch their prey.

      [–]MEaster 0 points1 point ago

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

      What's the difference between a large spider and a tarantula? I would look it up, but I suffer from arachnophobia, and there will likely be close-up pictures on the websites about this.

      [–]al_fe2o3 0 points1 point ago

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

      Well tarantulas are spiders just of the family Theraphosidae. I generalized to large spiders (which is a relative term, I know) because the size determines the ability to survive a fall and there are many "small" tarantulas.

      [–]skydivingdutch 4 points5 points ago

      Using any gun indoors is antisocial, but you'd be surprised that, the rifle might be a better option. Drywall has a funny effect on bullets, especially hollow points, that tend to act like FMJ when fired through it. Though, it always pays to remember that you're responsible for the rounds you fire until they reaches their terminal destination.

      Reminded me of the time I woke up to take a piss, and saw a gigantic spider waiting on the toilet for me. So I just took some toilet paper, wrapped it around my PENILE for safety of course. Then pissed on the spider with full force, it worked.

      In the very, very unlikely case that this is real, I suggest a BB gun, crossbow, or spear gun as a suitable pest control tool.

      Most likely faked, however.

      Raid don't do it. They can close their pores. If you use hairspray they can't reopen their pores but it takes a while I think (Plus this might not be true, it's what I've experienced though). Stick with fire, son.
