Photobombers Of The Day

Photobombers = people who hilariously ruin your nice little picture. Some call it "that guy"; we call it photobombing. A superb idea from Jocelyn; all photos from Facebook.




















WTF? Is that a ghost?












Go, dorky white guy!

These are hillarious!!

tantieyaya said...

OMG I have tears streaming down my face from these, and it's only 8:30 a.m.!!!

At least I finally know what I want to be when I grow up - a photo bomber!!!!!!

queen of kudzu said...

Hee-larry-us! Thanks for a belly laugh that will likely be the high point of an overbooked, stressful day. You rule!

~Angela~ said...

I think that first one is my favorite.

PrincessPi said...

Holy shit...I haven't laughed like that in a long time.

Laura said...

OMG the guy on the horse in the wedding pic...WTF? Ho, ho, hee, hee, ha ha ha ha...

Cowguy said...

That last one... I nearly choked. Lordy.

Steph said...

No, it's not a ghost. Don't be mean to Powder, Cary.

Miss Emily said...

WOW. What I keep wondering is how the photographer missed all of this when taking the picture! That, or they thought it was funny and took the picture anyway.

Jessie said...

I like the MANage-a-tois! You made my day!!!

Rose said...

I think I just found my new (free!) hobby. awesome.

Audra said...

Those are great but the ghost was a little terrifying

Aries said...

Dorky White Guy is my new personal hero.

Jason said...

simply awesome.

Gem said...

This was by far, hands down, my favorite of your lists ever. EVER. EVER. I love you cary.

Terpsichore, Confusia said...

Yep, loved Dorky White Guy. The last photo with the guy making a girly face is pretty funny, too.
WEre any of these photoshopped, or are they all real? Do you know?
-Confusia

Cary said...

Thanks all but the credit goes to Jocelyn, who gave me the idea and the link to the pics.

Gem.. what are you doing later?

tracey said...

Ghosts and bottoms and nip slips oh my! Great post Cary. Now I feel ready to face the rest of my Friday.

Submommy said...

Damn those are funny. The naked guy on the horse in the wedding picture I'm pretty sure is my fave, but it's hard to pick just one.

No, the guys all in white shirts on the beach. That's the one.

Those are just fan-freakin-tastic.

URBAN BLONDE said...

Funniest ever!

I hope the 4th from the last pic (girls in pool with dog) mooner isn't the girls father?
If so EWWWW!!

YES!! I now want to be a photo bomber too! I nearly wet myself laughing so hard!

Toni Brayer MD said...

I agree with all above comments...everyone. I want to be a photo bomber now.

Dan said...

To be honest, I was disappointed not to see myself in any of the pictures. I have been an avid photo bomber for the last 9 or so years. It's something that I have always thought was funny, but disappointing in that the one doing the bombing very seldomly sees the fruits of his performance.

SupremeAntBee said...

I can't stop laughing!! The last guy's face is classic. Thanks for this great laugh on a boring Saturday!

d said...

I don't think I've laughed that hard in a while. God it takes so little to amuse me.

MK said...

I thought the Olan Mills post was the best, but this tops it. LMAO!

Thanks!

Cathy said...

I think I know the photobomber in the last picture!

heidieden said...

I've been doing that for years! I never knew it had a name. These pics made me laugh (in the library where I am the librarian) so much that I had to share with some of the students who were watching me laugh. Awesome!

Cary said...

Thanks Heidi. I made up the name because I wasn't sure what else to call it.

Ginormous Boobs said...

My roommate, Tabbie, likes to do this with a peace sign all the time. She's a total amateur compared to these folks.

eLPete said...

My day is now a happy one!!

Anu said...

No, that's not a ghost. It seems to be a person with the disease albinism, which robs them of pigment in the eyes, skin and hair. You really shouldn't be making fun of him.

Anonymous said...

MORE! MORE!

Cary said...

anu(s) -

You must be new here.

As much as I love the self-righteous and morally superior, this probably isn't the blog for you.

Katie said...

I love it! What a clever post!

Dave said...

Great stuff! I love it.. thanks!

Anne said...

Um, I think I've found my life's calling.

alien gypsy said...

ROTFL! Thank you, I needed that laugh today! The 5th photo with the guy joining in on the cheer on the beach - priceless!

Big Ramifications said...

As much as I love the self-righteous and morally superior, this probably isn't the blog for you.

Pretty sure it's not a disease too.

There was a photo bomber albino at my uni and he had to read everything thru, like, a mini telescope, scanning the page and all hunched over.

Me and my best mate used to make pirate noises whenever he walked by. Yar!

I can't believe all the comments from people who thought it was a ghost. I'm all "what ghost???". But then, I thought it was some dude in fancy dress who'd gone silly with white stage makeup.

Well spotted anu. Good laffs all round. Great post.

Anonymous said...

I have heard of this phenomenon, only they call them "That Guy". Even if it's a girl, dog, etc, it's always That Guy.

Davidkevin said...

Man, these need to be edited like an early '60s group photo of Soviet cosmonauts.

chrispycrunch said...

This is really, really funny. I regret opening this at work, much to the dismay of pod neighbours...who wonder why i cannot stop laughing now.

Anonymous said...

Is that Angelo Tsarouchas picking his nose?

The Former 786 said...

This made my day and was passed around my office for all to laugh at.

Thank you. Here's to all photo bombers everywhere!

Mooner said...

So I get this phone call a minute ago telling me to check this site... and im definitely the guy in the pool... how in the hell? Hilarious none the less. Id love to lend my services for more photobombing if need be.

Anonymous said...

hahahaahhahaha I know all 3 people in the 4th from the top pic..the mooner is one of my best friends...I think I just shit my pants

מי זה נטרופ? said...

Nathan said...

Hmmm. Big ramifications - Cambridge, class of 2007? Am I right to assume that your name refers to local field theory?

David said...

too good: had to re-post and link it on: http://1to10reviews.com/2008/05/07/messing-with-a-good-picture-sadly-funny/

Great work guys

Anonymous said...

Is that Wilmer Valderrama in the 4th photo? And who is that girl in the aqua dress with the great rack?

Chris said...

I've had people come from locked offices a hallway away wondering what I'm laughing so hard at...

f'ing hysterical!

A.H. Al-Qadaffi said...

I'm lolin' so hard. At work with tears in my eyes. Epic lolz.

Alessan said...

Yeah, great pics!

And, yes, I guess that is Valderrama with some rather hot chicks. But the girl in the cyan dress is the hottest!

Anonymous said...

from BART (Holland): What a wonderful birthday-present sent to me by a close friend! I guess there is an universal language; photobombing:-). Elefantine lolz!!!

Everybody understood except that tight-ass ANU. For some time I used to be a nurse taking care of people with all kinds of "diseases".

Well now...dear ANU: most of that objectionable humor is coming from the "patients" themselves and "they" usually consider it a medicine.

I almost feel sorry for you. Don't be surprised if sometime in the future some of your snapshots are photobombed. It's us, Hahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!

Yiie said...

Hilarious! Opened it at work and now have the oldies looking at me with dismay (they walked passed where I had mooner pic opened).

Yiie said...

Hilarious!!

I had the mooner pic on screen when a bunch of oldies at work walked by. Oops.

Carla said...

HAHAHAHA.... so cool that you managed to collect all these funny pictures. :D

Justin Zero said...

This is basically the spring-break pastime of all of us who live in Florida

Joey Jo Jo said...

Absolutely made my day! My personal faves are the white guy in a photo full of black men, *whitey* with his bulging eyes and the guy threesome hahaa!

Mama Dawg said...

I just found this one from one of your more recent post and I just had to link to it.

Real tears are flowing down my eyes. The one that got me the most that I just this second giggled at again was the Ghost one. That was my first thought when I saw it and then when I read below the pic, snot came out my nose.

Thanks.

jen721 said...

I must thank Mama Dawg for sending me your way. I think the first one is my favorite!

Kevin said...

Yes. More. I love them.

LiteralDan said...

It's always nice to get a chance to enjoy the work of competent colleagues.

It's just too bad that none of these have me in them.

Mrs.Shepard said...

That's hillarious! My husband recently told me about Photobombing. He thinks it should be his new life ambition to see how many times he can get his butt on the internet by photobombing. LOL!

Moody said...

It took me a minute but did anyone else noticed that the panty flasher has a baby bottle in her hand? What's that all about?

Moody said...

Okay upon closer examination I have determined it to be a water bottle. Perhaps I should have done that before posting before.

Anonymous said...

this is freakin' hysterical

MIKE said...

This is the funniest thing ever. I cant wait to "photobomb" someone.... YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

calebgg said...

Dude... I've been doing this for years, but never seen how well I pulled it off... because the pics are always on a stranger's camera. I hope one of the many I've done before shows up here some day... so I can see how one finally turned out!
Glad to hear about a website collecting this stuff - also good to inspire creativity in photo bombing!

Brian said...

We need a site to post these to and vote on the best of! I always have to do this when a camera is around!
