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.

Wow. That makes me feel old and I'm in my early 20's. I miss the days when Adam Sandler movies were still funny.

[–]Kakoose 15 points16 points ago

Early 20s, e.g. <25 therefore you were at least 7 when you watched this movie. Perfect age.

Bow tie & Fez combo is cool!

[–]UnnecessaryPhilology 203 points204 points ago

Cool, slang for "fashionable" comes from Black English, 1933; probably popularized by jazz musicians. From Old English col which is from Proto-Germanic koluz. Kolus has given us coel in Middle Dutch, kuoli in Old High Germanic, and kühl in German. It also gave us kala in Old Norse, which means to be cold.

Koluz is from the Proto-Indo-European gel-/gol- "cold" or "to freeze." Gel- and gol- also gave the Latins glacies "ice," which gifted English with glacier. It also gave us the Latin gelare, "to freeze," which the Italians turned into a noun gelato "frozen," which gives us the name for the delicious treat.

If you actually go to his soundcloud it plays them all in a row. It's a kind of magical and mystifying experience - it's like /r/nocontext with a voice.

[–]totemair 68 points69 points ago

I met him once. Only once, for a few fleeting moments. I looked at him, he looked at me. I'll be damned if that glorious bastard didn't smell of long nights in the lab and the freshness of discovery. Bitchin' bowtie/hair combo as well

[–]7zark77 26 points27 points ago

I saw him in London yesterday. He walked right past me, dragging a suitcase behind him. He was wearing a Sherlock Holmes style deer stalker hat. I was going to ask for a photo but my Englishness got the better of me and I was too polite to impose.

I have him tagged as "14 year-old karma whore" for a reason. He also reposts.

[–]kyerussell 56 points57 points ago

Now you're tagged as "guy I trust too much" because I tagged him as the exact same thing just because you said that you did.

[–]ryumast3r 22 points23 points ago

I can't remember the exact post it was, but he resubmitted this gif, which was the submission that made me tag him. I remember seeing a few others, but cannae be arsed.

Billy Nye went to high school with my mom. They attended Sidwell Friends School in Washington DC, which is also where Sasha and Malia Obama attend. Chelsea Clinton went there too. We jokingly make fun of my mom for 1) not giving Bill Nye the time of day 2) Filet Mignon Tuesdays. Not surprisingly, he is a very nice guy, comes to all the reunions.

[–]ARandomNobody 5 points6 points ago

That clip was too amazing for my brain to handle.

[–]DeathToPennies 261 points262 points ago

I like to imagine he walks in with a megaphone and just shouts, "I AM BILL MOTHERFUCKING NYE, AND I AM IN THE SAME ROOM AS YOU."

[–]enjoytheshow 85 points86 points ago

I like to think he takes someone else's name tag to see how many people he can fool into believing he's someone else.

I'm totally down for Filet Mignon Tuesdays. Where do I sign up?

[–]labialuncheon 44 points45 points ago

For the small price of $35k per year.

Psh, I pay that for school right now.

And will pay for the rest of my life.

[–]Ninja_Spike 40 points41 points ago

Yeah but when a bully picks on a hot guy they get shunned by all the girls in school.

Source: Someone who want through High School as a relatively attractive man.

[–]KallistiEngel 34 points35 points ago

So what? A lot of bullies aren't doing it for girls. They're doing it to make themselves feel better about their own insecurities, which may or may not include being unattractive themselves.

[–]a_random_superhero 15 points16 points ago

And the best way for themselves to feel better is to have the approval of their peers, especially girls.

[–]Foxtrot53 2 points3 points ago

Confirmed. Every single person who gave me a hard time in school was either tiny or butt-ugly.

He never said that she went to school with him. He said that she was looking in a yearbook. You can find old yearbooks in plenty of school and public libraries.

[–]Herbamins 3 points4 points ago

Why not? It is from a different angle than any other picture like this.

Another example of the "got you" attitude on the internet. Everybody is so quick to point out a mistake or faux pas.

A simple google or tinyeye search would show you that this is a unique picture. And that the accusation of lying or karmawhoring isn't justified.

[–]sex_is_ugly 28 points29 points ago

Reddit, why do you only worship the scientists on television, and not the ones in print. Is it because you all claim to follow and love science, but only follow it in pop culture to garner punchlines from? (Pesky Christians) Is it because your a bunch of starfuckers?

[–]Raligon 25 points26 points ago

I understand your point, but you have to remember that Nye is a childhood icon, an inspirer. I have no doubt that a decent number of people got into science because things like Nye's show inspired them from an early age. It's just like Science Fiction. Various scientists have praised Sci Fi for its power to inspire the next generation of scientists. You don't have to literally be in the lab to help the cause, you know? If you inspire ten kids to go into science later in life, they'll probably eventually accomplish more than you ever would.
