taking pictures of your friends when they do not realize it, usually resulting in an
embarrassing picture
the only way to avoid a snipe is to put up two fingers to indicate you are aware of the snipe, or to smile and make it a nice picture- because if it's a good picture, it's not a good snipe
other forms of this game include dropping. dropping is when you plant an object on a friend without their knowledge, usually resulting in a
ridiculous appearance.
the best combination is a drop snipe because then you have a ridiculously
embarrassing picture of your friend to tag on facebook
