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.

  • 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.

So this is bacon that microwaves itself? Brilliant; sign me up.

[–]nizzleh 0 points1 point ago

Sign here, here and here. Congratulations! You are now part of the self-microwaving bacon fan-club!

Definitely a better title than The Lightning Discharge.

Grease lightning!

[–]laydowndead 1 point2 points ago

I guess pigs can fly.

[–]grimguitar 0 points1 point ago

Give me a car and half an opportunity. I have accepted this challenge, and I will not finish until that magical Sky Bacon is eaten or I'm dead.

It looks like the alien lightening that stole people's faces in Dr. Who.

[–]TMox 0 points1 point ago

Imagine what that does to your gut.

[–]dieyoubastards 0 points1 point ago

Don't eat it guys, it's pretty sky in cholesterol

EDIT: downvotes, really?

[–]so_carelessly_here 2 points3 points ago

Oh come on, don't edit your comment to complain about downvotes.

Take it like a man.

[–]Madmallard 1 point2 points ago

Or he can delete it lol.

[–]hungry_4_swag 0 points1 point ago

I was kind of being sarcastic, it was an awful pun

[–]so_carelessly_here 0 points1 point ago

The pun was alright.

Can't believe you're not proud of it. So fast to sell your pun down the drain and scream "sarcasm", aren't we?

Eh, it's fine. No downvotes for you, so all good.

Everybody's happy.

[–]Lord_Zelix 0 points1 point ago

Your terrible pun made me laugh so hard I woke up my roomates. Upvotes for you, sir.

[–]Madmallard -1 points0 points ago

Well the high to sky stretch is much further than most pun threads go, so yours just kinda blows.

[–]stoversp 0 points1 point ago

meh, I liked it. Have an upvote.

[–]TheodorAlexanderC 0 points1 point ago

re-post

[–]vmulber 0 points1 point ago

re-post & reusing comments, should have a way to send all the karma to the originator
