This reddit was inspired by a post by The_Big_Salad - when I read "mystery cloth on the guy's head turns out to be his underwear" I knew it had to be done.

The title of your submission should be a quote taken out of context from a reddit comment. Links must be to text submissions on reddit only. No outside material, audio or image links - not even screenshots.

Add ?context=N to your submission's URL (which should be the comment's permalink) to display N parent comments. Replace N with a number high enough to give the quote proper context.

After submitting, post a reply to your quotee letting them know they have been sent to /r/nocontext.

Please consider waiting at least a few days before submitting - /r/nocontext can be a bit more fun when the original thread isn't still on the front page.

Does the post you're submitting really need additional context to make sense? If not, consider submitting to /r/wtfdidijustread instead

If you are reporting a link please send the mod a message to note why the link is being reported.
