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.

At least you wanted coke and got coke. The world would truly be a terrible place if you wanted coke, but got pepsi.

[–]25152118512351915135 10 points11 points ago

Maybe they just ran out.

[–]spaceguy 0 points1 point ago

Maybe, but I think this guy has a better idea...

[–]The_Boogueyman -4 points-3 points ago

Lol! Worst advertising ever! Must be a Coca-Cola troll!

[–]Cheshyre_Cat 1 point2 points ago

It's not real advertising, it's from a movie - The Invention of Lying

[–]The_Boogueyman 0 points1 point ago

Well I'll have to see this movie then!

[–]BuckeyeBentley 4 points5 points ago

Pepsi > Coke.
COME AT ME, BRO

[–]spaceguy -1 points0 points ago

Um... that's acutally the greater-than sign? I think you must have been looking for the less-than sign. Otherwise your comment doesn't make any sense at all!!

[–]Cheshyre_Cat 1 point2 points ago

psshh, Diet Coke is way fouler than Pepsi

[–]PancakesAreGone 17 points18 points ago

I live in Canada... We don't get Cherry or Vanilla coke here... I will be visiting my father in Florida in August, had I been the unlucky soul to get diet coke from that machine, I'd of probably snapped and killed everyone in my immediate vicinity... I think everyone knows you don't fuck with another mans cherry coke.

[–]solarnexus 9 points10 points ago

I'd of probably

No

[–]ernesthelp 1 point2 points ago

Should've gone for the double contraction for extra points

I'd've

[–]darkscout 6 points7 points ago

If only there was some simple ingredient to add to Coke to make it Cherry or Vanilla coke. One can wish for miracles I guess.

[–]PancakesAreGone 7 points8 points ago

Fun fact : It doesn't taste the same. Using vanilla extract doesn't take the harsh coke taste away while legit Vanilla Coke goes down smooth. Trying to recreate cherry is just weird and never comes out right.

[–]iamthespoke 2 points3 points ago

Would vanilla ice cream/coffee creamer + coke taste work...to some extent?

[–]chemtype 4 points5 points ago

Only if you want to make a delicious float.

[–]ernesthelp 2 points3 points ago

What about Dr.Pepper? I need me some of that.

[–]PancakesAreGone 0 points1 point ago

From a grocery store in my town, "Do you guys not get Dr.Pepper?" "Well, it depends if the rep wants to take it off the truck... Sometimes he does, some times he doesn't".

So, apparently if a rep ever says no, then no, haha. I've only ever seen a place not have Dr.Pepper once, and that was it.

[–]Bipolarruledout 0 points1 point ago

It seems like every week they have different flavors and then someone will bitch and moan that they stopped making kiwi coke or some shit and then they will bring it back as soon as everyone forgets about it. Damn soft drink marketing.

[–]The_Boogueyman 0 points1 point ago

THEY ACTUALY MADE KIWI COKE! This surely could be ''the greatest invention since...

AIR''

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Yes, we do get vanilla coke and cherry coke in Canada, maybe just not where you are. I buy it all the time.

[–]PancakesAreGone 0 points1 point ago

1.Is it from a chain store? 2.Where are you?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Toronto, they sell them all over the place at convenience stores. Seen them at 7-11, Daisy Mart and a few smaller non-chain stores.

[–]PancakesAreGone 0 points1 point ago

7-11 is American, they might be using their American approval to get them shipped over. The other little stores most certainly don't have coke support as Coke says there isn't enough market to stock them here.

If you have stores that have them, you are lucky that the owners/managers are willing to bring them in and make next to nothing on them.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

I do notice that they slap a Canadian nutrition facts sticker over the american nutrition facts on the cans/bottles.

[–]PancakesAreGone 0 points1 point ago

Really? Then you might be running trials, and if that's the case, holy fuck that's good.

[–]hd2002 0 points1 point ago

7-11 is Japanese*

[–]sunlightonwater 10 points11 points ago

A soda machine where I work had diet coke in the dr pepper dispenser. Unacceptable. If I could up vote this a thousand times, I would.

[–]pHreaksYcle 1 point2 points ago

I would have stepped back and lobbed it right through the front of the machine. The guy would have gotten the fuckin idea when he opened it up and coincidentally the flavor in the middle of the broken machine is the flavor in the wrong slot.

[–]Foozer_guy 3 points4 points ago

Professor chaos strikes again!

[–]LetsMango 2 points3 points ago

I wish we had Cherry Coke in Canada.

[–]ImGonnaBeInPictures 3 points4 points ago

And people say Canada is better than the U.S.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points ago

I don't say that. I've never said that.

[–]Misspells_Definitely 2 points3 points ago

But that's because you're not people.

[–]curiousardor 1 point2 points ago

I mean, I feel like it would be worse the other way around, especially if you had diabetes...

[–]The_Boogueyman -1 points0 points ago

Is there really a meme or some joke about this guy, or was this just random?

Whatever, UPVOTE TO ANYONE!

[–]alreadytakenusername 1 point2 points ago

Using a secret algorithm, I was able to track down the person who left the note: him.

[–]I_sometimes_lie 1 point2 points ago

No, I wanted Orange. It gave me Lemon Lime.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]Zoro11031 16 points17 points ago

Because that would be the reasonable thing to do.

[–]Bipolarruledout 0 points1 point ago

They obviously did it on purpose so they would have something to sell in that slot.

[–]staurolite 1 point2 points ago

some men just want to watch the world burn

[–]ShottyKong 0 points1 point ago

So no one else noticed under the sign it says "Problems?"

[–]Gladius01 0 points1 point ago

I find it somewhat coincidental that bottom right of the aforementioned letter, you see the word, "Problems?" Seems like the re-stocker trolled without even meaning to troll.

[–]BuckeyeBentley 0 points1 point ago

I know at the fire station I used to ride at throughout medic school they had a ???? slot on their soda machine that was full of leftover cans from the other packs, and would occasionally have the money you spent getting the can taped to the can that came out.

[–]ThatTexasGuy 0 points1 point ago

When I was an office aid in high school, re-stocking the coke machine (we only had one in my small school) was my job. My head football coach/principal always got a Diet Dr. Pepper after lunch. So I would sometimes put a regular Dr. Pepper in the Diet slot. This happened several times before he realized I was the one responsible and had to run extra laps after practice. Lesson learned: Don't fuck with a man's sugary drinks.

[–]Tokkay 1 point2 points ago

But it tastes good!

[–]clickwir -3 points-2 points ago

soda is bad for you. even diet. Your life will be better without it. Join us.

[–]UltraJake 0 points1 point ago

I'm gonna start a "P.A.C.O" (People Avoiding the Consumption of Olives) group.
