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.

  6. No animated images. Please submit them to /r/gif, /r/gifs, or /r/reactiongifs instead.

  • 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.

If you believe this is real, you might want to reevaluate some of your other beliefs.

[–]brave-new-world 18 points19 points ago

Upon realizing that I'm not great at spotting doctored images, I reevaluated my beliefs and found that they were all actually invalid. You were right.

[–]poptartbrger 5 points6 points ago

I think he was referencing to the fact that if you think sharks can magically appear in a foot of water in an underground metro system you might be pretty fucking stupid.

[–]jaynap1 2 points3 points ago

Because sharks in a train station would be the most unlikely thing ever seen on Reddit, right?

[–]poptartbrger 2 points3 points ago

No, it's because sharks swimming in A FUCKING FOOT OF WATER is pretty damn unbelievable.

[–]chairtard 4 points5 points ago

uh... great whites need about 3 feet... but blues can easily swim in about a foot of water. Still fake.

[–]jaynap1 2 points3 points ago

Pretty unbelievable? Sure.

Still not the most unbelievable thing on Reddit, though.

[–]brave-new-world -2 points-1 points ago

I didn't really look at the photo that hard. I think I'm actually pretty smart, all things considered. Though thank you for your kind words.

[–]Aitioma 5 points6 points ago

Humans do more idiotic shit than this all the time.

Some idiot stealing sharks from somewhere and putting them in a flooded train station doesn't sound that unbelievable.

However, these sharks are quite badly photoshopped, which is unfortunate.

[–]BackwerdsMan 4 points5 points ago

Some idiot stealing sharks from somewhere and putting them in a flooded train station doesn't sound that unbelievable.

Yeah... That happens all the time!

[–]Aitioma 0 points1 point ago

Weird people, everywhere.

[–]BackwerdsMan 1 point2 points ago

Cool. Now lets see them jump into a tank, and instead of stealing a small flightless bird... Steal two 8ft sharks, then transport them(alive) to a subway station where they can be set free, and survive in a pool of fresh rain water.

[–]absurdlyobfuscated 1 point2 points ago

But Occam's Razor says photoshop is much more likely. The fact that they're swimming in what looks like six inches of water says the same thing.

[–]Scisyhp 1 point2 points ago

I mean I obviously knew it wasn't real, but what really confused me at first is that the reflection on the side of the escalator made it look like, with only a glance, the water was several feet up, while it only looked like inches by the person.

[–]sonvincent 1 point2 points ago

is it a good photoshop? or is it merely an easy to photoshop combination?

[–]awesome93 6 points7 points ago

Seems legit.

[–]ServerGeek 15 points16 points ago

That's a good 'shop... Kudos, to whomever created it.

[–]fuckoffandcry 5 points6 points ago

Kudos to you for using whomever appropriately.

[–]TomCorbett 5 points6 points ago

I'm pretty sure I sea pixels.

[–]seianat 2 points3 points ago

I see what you did there..

[–]VictorDrake 1 point2 points ago

How shore are you?

[–]bruster007 2 points3 points ago

No panic - just some out of towners who are attending the lawyers convention at the Royal York.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

I'm sick and tired of these mother fuckin sharks in this mother fuckin subway!

[–]mac1diot 1 point2 points ago

First zombie attacks, now sharks? We are now officially in a cheesy syfy original movie.

[–]basec0m 1 point2 points ago

They weren't just sharks.... but ZOMBIE sharks!

[–]thegrammarunicorn 2 points3 points ago

Those two guys are ankle deep in water ... yet the sharks are still pretty much fully submerged. Clearly fake.

[–]BackwerdsMan 7 points8 points ago

Yeah, that's totally what gave it away. Not the fact that they are sharks... IN TORONTO! Swimming around in rain water.

The last escalator ride you'll ever take

[–]lordcarnivore 0 points1 point ago

I didn't know they were filming another Jaws movie. I wonder what the title will be.

[–]m4n0nthem0on 0 points1 point ago

I'll never let go Jack..

[–]Idownvotecatpictures 0 points1 point ago

Seems legit.

nope

[–]Logondo 0 points1 point ago

I know Reddit gets a lot of reposts, but come on! I saw this exact same picture earlier this afternoon!

[–]Kalel795 0 points1 point ago

Wow is it yesterday already

[–]mcaffrey 0 points1 point ago

wat

[–]enragethehive 0 points1 point ago

This is totally real. My brother is in that picture.

[–]djscsi 2 points3 points ago

Is he the one with the bigger dorsal fin? Good looking guy right there.

[–]brave-new-world -1 points0 points ago

Ok but seriously guy, are there actually sharks swimming in that subway station or are you a photoshop god?

[–]matteyes 2 points3 points ago

Photoshop. And, technically, it's just outside a subway station, through a vestibule. It's part of the underground system below the Royal Bank tower in Toronto at King and Front. Actually, that escalator leads directly to the middle of the bank's lobby. Sorry, I just felt like being pedantic.

[–]brave-new-world 1 point2 points ago

There is no forum better suited for pedantry than reddit. But I'm really upset that there aren't actually sharks down there. That would be some Day After Tomorrow shit.

[–]stopmotionporn -1 points0 points ago

Yeah I'm sure this is real. How about a link to the actual "news" article you got this from?
