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.

Oh man....you made me remember the Noid existed at one point. This is worse than losing the game.

This is worse than losing the game.

DoorMarkedPirate, it's time to return to the flock.

Is it just me or do you think that someone is murdering the dominos delivery guys but keeps ordering pizzas?

Killing makes you hungry i guess.

[–]AutoFailure 9 points10 points ago

Where was the photo taken. Street signs look European...wanna' say Spain?

[–]CaptchaReader 7 points8 points ago*

Yes it is Spain :)

Also the registration plates of cars and mopped.

Edit: Tarragona! (Catalonia), according with the phone number on the bikes (977 24 17 17) :)

[–]axtolip 4 points5 points ago

Haha, I also thought immediately of Spain. The overall look of the street, the heavily pruned trees on Spring, the balcony and finally the plates and signs.

Funny how one can recognize his country from a small street in a random city.

[–]fergunet 4 points5 points ago

Came here for the same :)

[–]WaywardSpaniard 2 points3 points ago

And found it! http://g.co/maps/67t4q I have spent a lot more time in this than I'd like to admit.

[–]cat55 18 points19 points ago

I see what you did there...

[–]Texas03 37 points38 points ago

...you kicked over a bunch of Domino delivery bikes for karma, GENIUS

[–]redthrapp 1 point2 points ago

Came here looking for this comment.

[–]CAPS_LOCK_USERNAME 0 points1 point ago

We all thought it, but only Texas03 was quick enough on the draw.

[–]LarryTheSatelliteGuy 4 points5 points ago

This guy is the driver for one of those bikes

[–]L1M3 2 points3 points ago

Saw this pic, nostalgia bombed, came here for a TMNT reference. This will do.

Domino's. Not a good name for a food chain.

Yet calls for a good pun involving "chain effect"

[–]supaphly42 2 points3 points ago

This was clearly the work of The Noid!

Hopefully that works for you. If not, I'll upload to another server.

Hey dawg I heard you liked Dominos, so we put some Dominos in your dominos.

[–]MrPremium 0 points1 point ago

I came here for the pun thread. So far I'm disappointed.

Please tell me you didn't knocked those over to take a pic to post on Reddit..

[–]Nukeman 0 points1 point ago

I don't see any Communists.

[–]McDuble 0 points1 point ago

I am a dominos delivery driver. i would not trust my life in the hands of other drivers driving like fucking retards. since ive worked there many drivers have gotten in accidents, every single of one them the other drivers fault, and always something ridiculously stupid, like one driver was going 30 through a green light in the left lane of this 2 lane road, and this dumb lady from a complete stop turned left from the right lane with out signaling.

spending 15-20 hours on city roads as a job, not a great idea to be something that can be ran over by a geo metro.

[–]dathom 0 points1 point ago

Wise man say forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza.

[–]wBeeze 0 points1 point ago

Scooter with "Hot Box" on the back for food delivery.

Had this idea a little while ago... also had the hunch it was already in existence.

Must find a way to incorporate this into the Lame Pun Coon meme

If those vehicles contained any pizza at the time, I think we owe them a moment of silence.

Goddamn it Captain Hammer. You can't just tip people's bikes for karma. Shouldn't you be busy keeping tabs on the ELE right now?

[–]QQLessPlz 0 points1 point ago

[–]truggernaut 0 points1 point ago

Reminds me of Keno's scooter from TMNT, before they were from Nabu.

[–]Hoobleton 0 points1 point ago

So I saw this happen about 4 years ago (not this specific instance but the exact same thing) and never thought of this joke. If i'd said it then it would've been awesome and i'd've been super popular.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

wow is this how other countries do dominos? i deliver for dominos and we dont get badass scooters

[–]bjossi97 0 points1 point ago

More like the dominos effect. Haha..

[–]TheLoneHoot 0 points1 point ago

Wait a minute - that looks like a European city (or maybe Argentina or Uruguay)... they have Domino's Pizza over there?!

Not saying good or bad, just surprising. Not because of the wide ranging hand of US corporations, but I would just think people would simply not like American "McPizza". Personally I kind of like the new Domino's pizza (okay now and then), but I would think it would be a complete failure in Europe if for no other reason it's American.

Again, just genuinely surprised, that's all.

[–]flobin 6 points7 points ago

There's also plenty Pizza Huts in Europe.

Personally, I like thick-bottomed pizza. But yes, most people don't.

[–]TheLoneHoot 0 points1 point ago

I understand.

Not saying good or bad, just surprising. Not because of the wide ranging hand of US corporations, but...

In fact if you re-read what I wrote, you'll see that I know there are other brands well spread over Europe. Maybe I wasn't so clear on that. Basically what I was saying was, I wasn't surprised that Domino's is there at all, just that it is (apparently) successfully established. I just figured American "fast food" (pizza being something of the sort) was sort of a joke to Europeans.

I just didn't realize that they actually liked our food. That's all. :)

[–]flobin 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, that's what I meant with the "But yes, most people don't." comment.

[–]YouJellyBrah 2 points3 points ago

I spent a few months in Barcelona, they had it there. But since I was only there a few months, I never tried it, so I can't tell you how it compares. There was also Subway, BK and of course McDonald's. I only went to Mickey D's (every place I saw in 4 different countries was always packed) a few times and it was always good - better than the US, I'd say.

They had this thing in Barcelona, the CBO. Chicken, bacon, onion. The bun even had bacon bits and onion bits in it. Holy drunk food Batman.

[–]SethMandelbrot 1 point2 points ago

Barcelona has the classiest McDonald's I've ever been to, on Diagonal at the end of Rambla Catalunya. They played classical piano while I ate my McMuffin and watched taxis and pedestrians stroll by.

[–]YouJellyBrah 0 points1 point ago

If you're talking about the one right on the corner of the Plaza Catalunya, hell yes. Went there all the time.

[–]SethMandelbrot 0 points1 point ago

Nah, I think that's a BK.

[–]YouJellyBrah 0 points1 point ago

It is. There's a McD's one block further on the far side of the plaza, at the top of La Rambla, the really touristy area.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

You seem to be under the impression that Europeans hate literally everything about/from the US - this is simply not the case. And American pizza is supposedly great. The frozen pizzas you buy in the UK are inevitably Italy- or Chicago-themed.

[–]TheLoneHoot 0 points1 point ago

Yes, at least you understood my comment properly. Others seem to think that I was surprised that American fast food was in Europe. You, however, got the context correct. Thanks.

And yes, based on comments (many from European Redditors) I was (am?) under the impression that Europeans generally regard Americans, and American things as substandard. Just my impression, mind you.

I guess it's good to know that my impression is apparently wrong.

[–]RoundSparrow 0 points1 point ago

they have Domino's Pizza over there?!

Dude, they have Domino's in Jordan!

[–]cpt_hammer[S] 0 points1 point ago

It's the south of France but not entirely sure where, a friend of mine snapped it whilst on a road trip

[–]oblivision 11 points12 points ago

Actually I am pretty sure that is Barcelona. I can tell by the phone prefix on the bikes, and also because there is a sign in the back of a spanish syndicate (UGT)

[–]cpt_hammer[S] 3 points4 points ago

Actually, yes, they were in France 2 weeks ago, now in Spain!

[–]killemyoung317 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, I was thinking Barcelona. I just got back from spring break there and this looks EXACTLY like the street I was staying on... and every other street there for that matter...

[–]maybe-me 2 points3 points ago

¡Bravo! Gran trabajo detectivesco :P

[–]mastegas 0 points1 point ago

and also because there is a sign in the back of a spanish syndicate (UGT)

More like a labor union, right?

Also, license plates form both cars and motorcycles look much like Spanish ones. So yes, I don't know if it is Barcelona but I'd bet it's somewhere in Spain.

[–]oblivision 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, wikipedia defines it as a "workers' union", but I honestly don't know the difference between that and a syndicate.

I know that the plates look spanish, but I cannot tell for sure they are ONLY spanish, so I ruled out that que.

[–]surfsupNS 1 point2 points ago

I was in Paris 2 weeks ago and i was walking beside a row of about 10 parked scooters and a guy backed into them. same result, but i eyed him down and he got out and stood them all up. I helped cause he did the right thing.

[–]fireinthesky7 0 points1 point ago

That might be a once in a lifetime occurrence in the US. Nobody gives a fuck about motorcyclists here.

[–]TheLoneHoot -1 points0 points ago

wow - I'm genuinely shocked.

Thanks for the info.

[–]DeLoreanMotorCars 5 points6 points ago

You're shocked that a billion dollar company has a restaurant in a European City? There are KFC and Pizza Huts in Pakistan, Burger Kings in Iraq.

[–]TheLoneHoot 0 points1 point ago

Not saying good or bad, just surprising. **Not because of the wide ranging hand of US corporations, but I would just think people would simply not like American "McPizza". **

Of course I know there are American brands of fast food outlets, I was just surprised that an American "McPizza" brand was (apparently) successful in France. That's what shocks me.

[–]HanumanMan 1 point2 points ago

That is barcelona... the phone number on back of the bikes starts with 933 which is barcelona's area code.

[–]HavanAle 0 points1 point ago

At least it was dominoes and not something good

[–]bobbyhead 1 point2 points ago

Still senseless waste of pizza :(

[–]vidus -1 points0 points ago

I feel this almost uncontrollable urge to find a way to edit your title to read "The Domino's Effect." Must be the English teacher in me.

[–]spanishlaw 5 points6 points ago

Why? 'Domino Effect' is perfectly correct.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domino_effect

[–]vidus 0 points1 point ago

Well, its domino's on the cycles...and...ok it might be some ocd too.

[–]chili_cheese_dog 3 points4 points ago

That's the grammar nazi in you.

[–]vidus 0 points1 point ago

Probably. When I was a TA at Arkansas they really drilled that into us.

[–]oenoneshore -1 points0 points ago

how ironic xD

[–]anonymouscreed 9 points10 points ago

Isn't it the opposite of irony? It is literally fulfilling the meaning of dominos.

[–]somedelightfulmoron 1 point2 points ago

I think the term is sardonic...

[–]Brewster-Rooster 1 point2 points ago

yeah it'd be ironic if one fell onto the other and none fell down. or something....

[–]CircleJerk_Shepherd 0 points1 point ago

how ironic xD

You've been summoned to return to the flock, oenoneshore.

[–]Brown_Twig -2 points-1 points ago

Fuck dominos

[–]Sir_George -1 points0 points ago

Happens in Chicago too where we tend to have high winds. Always fun to see the hipster come out and be pissed about his scooter tossed down.

[–]heavy_wave -1 points0 points ago

no pun intended, right? haha
