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.

Have had this as my phone background for a couple of weeks and have so far had 2 people not know who Bill Murray is, kids these days...

I don't get this. Do people really need this sort of empty praise on a regular basis?

I mean, it's more than likely that most of the people looking at this are merely average. And even accepting that it's a "morale boost" thing, does it really work if the thing supposedly boosting your morale is a poster? If it were a person, sure, I could see that working if you genuinely thought they meant it.

But even my first though would be "It's clear this person is saying this solely to attempt to boost my morale, and not because they actually believe it." - and that makes it a lie, and that would make me feel worse, not better.

tl;dr: Does vacuous, empty praise really help people? Do they not see through it immediately?
