Have you ever 'photo bombed' anyone?

I've never done it but my nephew does it to me when I take pictures all the time. Sometimes it's funny and sometimes I want to kill him.

Before photo bombing was photo bombing I stood behind a band during their meet and greet and would make a face for every photo.

You're like a photo bomb hipster 



It you've taken more than five selfies on a Disneyland ride with your BFF and happen to be sitting in front of me, I'm going give my sons the signal to photo-bomb you while I sit there like a lady. I can only take so much. 

I've never done it intentionally but my sister has. She and her 2 friends were at an amusement park and happened to run into the same family at multiple spots constantly taking pictures. They stood in the background and photo bombed their pictures for most of the day, were in probably half of their pictures. If i were that family I would think it hilarious, but I could see how someone could be upset with the excessive bombs. This was before the days of digitally cropping pictures.

No, I am another stick in the mud. I think it's obnoxious.

However, DH did accidentally! He was at a Wild hockey game with our DD. The two guys next to him took a selfie. DH was yawning in the background. Later, they showed him he had over 20 likes on Facebook.

So you potentially ruined someone's wedding photo and you think it's funny?  That sounds pretty narcissistic and self absorbed.

Okay, that's a bit dramatic. If she mooned the camera, flipped the camera off or was grabbing her crotch as a photobomb, perhaps. Smiling big and cheesy and waving? Not so much.

I think doing it during a casual "Let's snap a photo" to someone you know is funny. Everyone realizes it's been done, you all have a laugh and you have the chance to take a new photo (minus the photo bomber).

But I think doing it when people don't realize the joke is happening is kind of a  jerk'ish thing to do. I would be so disappointeded to sit down with our pics only to realize some stranger is intentionally in the background making an ignorant motion or expression. I think that's really rude.

If they only had ONE picture taken their whole wedding day, I can see being upset. But I highly doubt they only had one picture taken.

I think photobombs are funny. Repeated are not. I was at a wedding a few months ago where I was trying to take a selfie of two of us at one point and then trying to get a picture taken of three of us. One kid jumped in the picture EVERY TIME. We took about ten pictures total and he jumped in every one, after being told repeatedly to stop. We finally just gave up. The bad part is, we were the bride and bridesmaids and we only have two professional pictures of the three of us and no candids. I didn't want to ruin the bride's day by yelling at her kid as it had already been a rough wedding.

My DH and I unintentionally photo bombed an entire bus full of tourists who were taking pictures of the Library of Congress.  

We live in the DC area, and we like walking around the Capitol grounds on weekend mornings before there's a lot of traffic and people. One morning after a run, we stopped for coffee and were laughing with each other as we headed home. When we reached the steps to the Library, he referenced a movie quote where the character pulls up his shirt. As I'm doubled over laughing and he's standing there with his shirt up at 8 in the morning, we both turned our heads to see the tour bus and the passengers at the windows with their cameras. We both froze for a second, burst out laughing again, and ran off. It still makes me giggle when I think about it, but I really hope nobody ended up with a video of the two weirdos on the Library steps. 

One trip DH and I and another couple went to a very expensive restaurant and asked our waiter to take a picture. We were outside on the patio and some dude inside the restaurant decided to photo bomb us. We didn't know it until we got the picture back and unfortunately it was the only one we took. UGH! So no, I won't do that to someone else....even if I think it would be funny and they are taking a 1000 pics.

Now this is funny: Aaron Rodgers photobombs

No, and I wouldnt as I find it rude.

I did it once. There was a group walking in front of me and they stopped to take a photo. It was an abrupt stop and I didn't expect it so I played along. They were all drunk so I don't think they cared too much. Probably laughed at the middle aged lady photo bombing them.
