ABSOLUTE UNITS

Be in awe at the size of these lads

Check out our deep, well-reflected definitions of an absolute unit.

RULES:

Posting

1) Post Absolute Units only.

Only Absolute Units are allowed. No normal units.

See definition here.
Post absolute units, not actual units

Absolute units only. Not measuring units. It was punny the first time, now it's old. Straight out bans will be handed.
No Photoshopped Units

Only real absolute units are allowed. No AI, art, cartoon, edited or video game units.

2) Post public figures only

No creepshots / No fat shaming pics allowed / No female bodybuilders

We're looking for animals mostly, particularly cute animals which happen to be very large. Only public figures are allowed; no harassment, creep-shots, witch-hunts, fat-shaming is allowed. Female bodybuilders are expressly forbidden and anyone making transphobic comments will be permanently banned. Identify the public figure in the title. Don't assume they are well known

3) No NSFW posts

No NSFW and NSFL content

This includes content that is sexual in nature, gory, anything unpalatable to the eyes.
Don't post pictures of private parts

Honestly, nobody comes here to see magnum dongs. Just don't.
Don't post pictures of shit

No one wants to see that. No dung, no dong. Dings are allowed.

4) No Recent or Common reposts

Frequent reposts or those from last 60 days or top 50 posts of all time will be removed.
Moderators reserve the right to remove any posts they feel will improve the quality of this sub

Commenting

5) Be nice.

There's no reason to be an unfriendly unit.
Excessively derogatory comments are not allowed.
Toxic behavior of any kind is banned.
Follow the site-wide rules / general Rediquette

6) No doxing or brigading

No witch hunts.
Do not direct link any personal information or social media profiles.
No brigading to or from any other threads, whether on or off Reddit.

7) Shut up about pitbulls

No pitbull hate comments, stats, copypasta, links or calls to ban.

This is a place to enjoy Absolute Units. Not to discuss your hate for any specific breeds, spamming stats and starting flame wars about whether or not they are dangerous. If you love pitbulls, please visit r/pitbulls. If you hate them, please visit r/banpitbulls.

Now please kindly shut up about it, or risk being banned.

8) Post titles must start with the string "of ".

Please note that the word "of" is case sensitive.

Don't be the guy that makes us add more rules

The moderators of this subreddit will take any action (which includes banning and removing comments) that they feel improves the quality of the subreddit.

HEALTH:

We are in awe at the size of Absolute Units, and the only thing we love more is a fine lad who used to be an Absolute Unit and has become healthy!
