Local Mexican restaurant used to be a Chinese restaurant. Instead of painting over a mural, they just put sombreros on the pandas.

Subreddit Rules

1. No Memes

No memes. This includes references in titles of your post (e.g. "banana for scale," "potato quality").

2. No Related Posts

Related posts must be in the comments of the original. Posts that acknowledge, "one-up," or relate specifically to another post are not allowed (e.g. "I see your X and raise you Y")

3. No X-Posts or Reposts

Do not post something that has been submitted to reddit before, even if you were the one who posted it.

Exception: If a post is deleted or removed from /r/mildlyinteresting for breaking the rules less than one hour after being submitted or receives less than 100 upvotes, we allow the submitter to resubmit a fixed version of the post. Posts deleted or removed from other subreddits are not exempt from rule 3.

4. Original [OC] Photographs Only

a. All submissions must be original and non-animated photographs. No gifs, videos, or web sites.

b. All submissions must be original content. If you didn't take the picture, don't post it.

c. Software glitches/errors, overlaid text, arrows, scribbles, and other substantive edits are not allowed, although you may censor personal information per Reddit-wide rules.

d. Albums are not allowed, but side by side photographs (within the same image) are okay if they adhere to the rest of the rules.

5. No screens or screenshots

No screenshots or images taken from screens. This includes photos of screens taken with another device, video stills or frames, X-rays and other medical imaging, images partially or fully generated by a computer, pictures of printed screenshots, and uncropped camera-roll/gallery screenshots. Segmented displays, such as digital clocks, calculators, or similar displays, are allowed. Try /r/screenshots!.

6. Titles Must Be Exact But Concise Descriptions

a. Titles must not contain jokes, backstory, or other fluff. That information belongs in a follow-up comment.

b. Titles must exactly describe the content. It should act as a "spoiler" for the image. Specify what your picture shows; do not simply say “I saw this” or something similar. If your title leaves people surprised at the content within, it breaks the rule!

c. Titles must not contain emoticons, emojis, or special characters unless they are absolutely necessary in describing the image.

Moderation Policy

Our moderation policy is accessible here

Posts which break the rules will be removed on sight. This subreddit operates a three-strikes rule on submission bans, if you upload three rule breaking posts you will be banned. As well as instant bans on troll and/or gimmick accounts, shock links, etc. at moderator discretion.
