Photobombers -- Ruining Your Pictures, One Click at a Time

Photobombers -- the (often intoxicated) work of a dude who sneaks his way stealthily into your photographs, completely marring what would have been another awesome picture of you and your friends holding up your beers and smiling.

Although often photographed, his kind remains a mystery. Who is this random man? Where did he come from, and what are his motivations? One golden moment of genius and then, in a flash, he's gone.

Wonder at his antics in this gallery of great photobomber moments we gathered from around the web including College Humor and Flickzzz.com.

"Duh" isn't quite as old as "'kay" or "go play in traffic."

Listen, let's call a truce, because I need your help. I'm writing a short story about a sad, plump, mustachioed 11th grader with no friends and giant bunion-infested feet who's barely passing Basic Algebra (A+ in lunch, though!) and wearing her older sister's hand-me-down underwear, which, with a little Shout in the crotch and some needle and thread, will be good as new, especially those XXL granny panties that she loves so much, even though they're so worn that some of the thick, wiry hair from her criminally neglected jungle-bush pokes right through.

Anyway.. I was thinking that you'd be perfect to give me some insight into this gal. What's it like?

Thanks in advance, omanko.

Ah, you cut me deep just then.

First of all, I'd like to say that you're really not worth the air you breath, or any more of my time, so once I get this last part down, I'm done.

Good luck with your autobiography. But be careful! I've heard that the squirrels you've got living in your pubic jungle have rabies. They probably get along well with the crabs, through.

Oh, and I wasn't kidding about that whole suicide thing. I really think a fistful of vicodin and a hop off the Brooklyn Bridge would do you wonders.

You can claim victory if you'd like, seeing as I won't be wasting my time replying to you again. But you should probably remember that when you do reply (Because I know you will. Having no friends and nothing cool to do pretty much forces you onto the internest to harass perfect strangers because you don't have the sack to say anything to anyones face. Plus, you're pathetic enough that you're going to simply HAVE to have the last word) you'll be talking to yourself.

Now why don't you get back to your world of warcraft, porn, and snacking on your mom's pubes, you worthless excuse for a human being.

Not bad but your slams were a little too derivative of mine, so I can only give you a C-minus. Good effort, though.

Off to snack on mom's pubes..

TTFN

i think that maybe 8-10 of these photos are real, of the remainder, i would think that perhaps 90% are "shopped" - the grimacing, goofballs added in sometime after the fact & the rest are staged.

Two Muslim women tried to photobomb Obama and were paid $10,000.00 each by Karl Rove to do it. They were caught and are now demanding an apology for an additional $5,000.00 each.

In these days of digital photography, it is relatively simple to remove these asinine people from photographs.
