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.

*was pregnant...... with someone elses baby. Most people would think that you just broke up with your ex and she told she's pregnant with your kid. Funny pic nonetheless

[–]KilgoreTroutQQ[S] 51 points52 points ago

I can't even get preterite and imperfect tenses right in my native language. No wonder I have a C in Spanish 1442.

[–][deleted] 123 points124 points ago

Try Spanish 2012 the language has evolved quite a bit since then. Lots of new features to say the least. Simplified rules for ordering comparisons, print is a function and loads of new syntax.

[–]KilgoreTroutQQ[S] 37 points38 points ago

Kel?!

[–]Lycist 5 points6 points ago

haven't seen that show in ages.. well placed reference.

[–]iTomJ -4 points-3 points ago

I thought he was making a reference to the "I know some of these words" meme. Nonetheless I think it still works.

[–]I_make_things 0 points1 point ago

I just want to mention that I love orange soda too.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

Drink on brother!

[–]lowrads 3 points4 points ago

sheiiit... that is a word.

[–]hobbit6 0 points1 point ago

It's funny you say that. It wasn't until I started taking foreign languages that I had a firm grasp on our tenses.

[–]usemayonaise 2 points3 points ago

That's true, my spelling went straight down the toilet though

[–]churro89 3 points4 points ago

My first interpretation was that OP wanted to kill himself by putting himself in harm's way, and then I figured he means to say he dodged that bullet.

[–]aidsnakedrap 55 points56 points ago

Cant connect the dots. But the Gif is Crazy funny

[–]VBxGatsby 86 points87 points ago

He dodged a horrible fate.

[–]redbullhamster 20 points21 points ago

You spelled hula hoop wrong. A horrible hula hoop.

[–]Kela3000 -1 points0 points ago

Hula hoop is fate. Directed by M. Night Shamalama-eki-eki-eki-pt'tang.

[–]noprotein -1 points0 points ago

M Nee! Shamamalon

[–]Skudworth 21 points22 points ago

Dodged that bullet like a boss.

[–]strategicfoliage 7 points8 points ago

I sometimes confuse bullets and hula hoops too.

[–]FeierInMeinHose 1 point2 points ago

Obviously the reason hula hoops makes that sound when you shake them is because they are filled with bullets.

[–]darjen 0 points1 point ago

still woulda hurt if the hula hoop hit him in the face.

[–]RogueAshKetchum 6 points7 points ago

How long after you broke up did it happen?

[–]deityofanime 4 points5 points ago

By the nature of the post I wouldn't think long, but Reddit does have a tenancy drag on feelings like this far longer than usual. For all we know it could be five years.

[–]drethedog 21 points22 points ago

You went through a fast-spinning hula hoop?

[–]chris-martin 21 points22 points ago

Yes. What is unclear about this? Isn't that what anyone would do?

[–]grazedknees 1 point2 points ago

OH MY GOD CHRIS MARTIN I LOVE YOUR WORK

[–]Ovlovian 0 points1 point ago

No.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points ago

That was a missed opportunity for a life lesson.

[–]illmojo 2 points3 points ago

video in the gif it almost looks as if he goes through the hoop, not as impressive in the higher quality video.

[–]JustPeachy17 6 points7 points ago

Bloody miracle that kid didn't get hit.. Congrats on not knocking her up, by the way.

[–]baronxs 7 points8 points ago

/r/reactiongifs

[–]shadiest 1 point2 points ago

Narrowly missed that one.

[–]The_KLUR 1 point2 points ago

I was kind of expecting the kid to just get railed by the hula-hoop that's what i get for not reading the title

[–]SchindlerTheGrouch 2 points3 points ago

She's very young for a girlfriend you freak.

[–]iwantaredditaccount 1 point2 points ago

You dodged a hula-hoop there.

[–]Shelllbeee 1 point2 points ago

Um...this isn't a picture.

[–]Oobert 4 points5 points ago

Proof reddit can't read...

[–]RearmintSpino 2 points3 points ago

Complete and utter fuck up of the title and a total waste of a great picture. Ok, now just forget what you saw here people and wait for someone to come along and do it right...

[–]HarveyMcGhee 3 points4 points ago

Why is a GIF in r/pics?

[–]MrTovson 0 points1 point ago

I will upvote if kid comes out and says 'being alive is a crock of shit'

[–]quickie_ss 0 points1 point ago

It's more like, how the fuck did it get through.

[–]Shatenfreude 0 points1 point ago

my ex had a kid 10 months after we broke up...this gif. certainly applies

[–]mcsvor 0 points1 point ago

Also: your user name.

[–]Shatenfreude 1 point2 points ago

Indeed. Don't mind the misspelling, its from a certain online game where I had to bastardize the word to fit, so schadenfreude became shatenfreude.

[–]mcsvor 0 points1 point ago

Haha! Truly fitting in this case, misspelling or not.

[–]Shatenfreude 1 point2 points ago

stupid skank. She stole my $100 college sweatshirt too, found a pic of her and the kid with the father. He was wearing the sweatshirt...

[–]Bartizan 0 points1 point ago

This is awesome, I too just found out an ex-gf is pregnant and of course I'm not the father. Plus the boy looks just like me at that age.

[–]whitmell 0 points1 point ago

Haha subtle, well done.

[–]nerdjam45 0 points1 point ago

happened twice... someone else's baby each time

[–]Pistolsmoke 0 points1 point ago

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JG5ZsHW4C8 This is more like what you did.

[–]surly_redditor 0 points1 point ago

I hate the trend of reposting the same old shit with a different "This is how I feel when" or "When I found out" title

[–]headzoo -3 points-2 points ago

I'm not sure OP understands how pregnancy works. Your ex wasn't set to get pregnant on X day, and you were lucky enough to break up with her before that day. Plenty of my exes have gone on to get pregnant and raise families, and I never thought to myself, "Whew, thank god I broke up with her before she got pregnant, or I would be the one stuck with that kid!"

[–]RogueAshKetchum 0 points1 point ago

Maybe there's some backstory, like she forgot to take her pill or maybe she had been cheating on him and he got out in time so he wasn't cuckolded? Other than that though it wouldn't make much sense

[–]Kaiuk -1 points0 points ago

Upvoted for Vonnegut reference

[–]tolley 1 point2 points ago

More upvotes for the vonnegut reference.

[–]kevka -3 points-2 points ago

A gif image is typically an animation, or a motion picture. It is basically a video compressed into bitmap image format. Get the fuck out.

[–]FOOGEE 4 points5 points ago

Who cares? Both you gtfo.

[–]stigma_nigga 1 point2 points ago

No. Fuck off.

[–]AL_CaPWN422 0 points1 point ago

/r/gifs is for gifs like this. /r/pics is for pictures.

[–]KEBBE -1 points0 points ago

That is the best gif in the world.

[–]jabbakahut -1 points0 points ago

You mean *wasn't. Like you dodged a bullet. Which would then make sense with the GIF.

[–]kakuam12 -1 points0 points ago

dodged that bullet

[–]ladyraralala -1 points0 points ago

I don't see it as dodging the bullet. I see it as OP is so excited he wants to grap a hula hoop, spin it and grin.

[–]TheySeeMeComing -4 points-3 points ago
