Photo-Jacking

In a similar vein to photobombing, however instead of getting in the photo, you steal other peoples cheesy tourist shots by getting in the way of the photographer and taking the shot on your own camera.

"Look at these tourists posing for Eiffel tower hold up pics"

"Time for some Photo-Jacking"

Photo Wingman

Common in online dating. When someone uses a group photo with a hotter friend for their profile photo, making it unclear to potential suitors who the profile is for, thus creating undo interest in them. The classic bait-n-switch.

Frank: "Billy, how was your date?"
Billy: "Not good."
Frank: "I saw her profile pic. She looked pretty cute..."
Billy: "Nah, turns out my date was the other girl in the pic. The cute one was just playing Photo Wingman."

Phontagion

When staring at a phone becomes contagious.

I cause phontagion in the elevator when I took out my phone to read a text. Then everyone else in the elevator whipped out their phone to look at it also.
