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.

Who keeps it on double click?

[–]nismomonkey[S] -1 points0 points ago

Everyone except for you clearly.

[–]DepressedRacoon 2 points3 points ago

I don't think that word memes what you think it memes.

[–]nismomonkey[S] 0 points1 point ago

well ser, I created it as a meme, this popped up on my page, it memes exactly what I know it memes. The photo is what is important here, not the MS Paint knock off.

[–]DepressedRacoon 2 points3 points ago

The whole point of a meme is that you can't create one of the bat with that intention (except forced memes). A memetic is a commonality of thought, a coming together of an idea. A cultural phenomenon, something everyone knows about. Millhouse is not a meme, is a meme.

Noted. From what you say, I think either you are wrong, or you are the only person on the internet that knows what a meme is.

[–]DepressedRacoon 2 points3 points ago

The meme, analogous to a gene, was conceived as a "unit of culture" (an idea, belief, pattern of behaviour, etc.) which is "hosted" in one or more individual minds

You are probably thinking of an Image Macro, the sort you would see in /r/adviceanimals. Image Macros are a meme of themselves, and some individuals are memes in their own right. Even they won't catch on without particular need or interest.

I have now learned something I never really needed to know. Thank you ser, you should be a college math professor.
