Kitties, do you have trouble taking selfies? Maybe it's cos of that disposible thumb thing or perhaps you can't get the timer just right. In fact, I see many of you wind up having your human snap the pic anyway. You're in luck. The latest fad on Instagram, replacing the selfie, is the "plandid."
Plandid. Get it? Planned candids. That’s the new term humans are using when you ax someone to take a picture and you pretend you don’t know they are taking that picture. Yo Woman, you took that photo above before I was ready. That's NOT a plandid! You might ax your human to snap a shot of you eating a treat or casually playing with a toy shmousy. It's candid but it's planned. How pawsome is that for us cats?
The best part other than not having to mess with camera settings is that you don't have to stare directly at the flashy box or say "cheese."
All the celebs are doing it and soon all the celebrity cats will be doing it too. Wait—We already ARE doing it! We've been doing it for a few years. I hope your human gets the concept better than TW has. You can show your plandids on Kitties Blue's Sunday Selfies blog hop this week.
Honestly, I think we cats actually invented "plandids," don't you?

I was just going to say, we kitties have been doing plandids for years! MOL
ReplyDeleteBawhahahahahaha! Yes, we are all about the plandids in our house. I love the hidden messages. How do you do that? Rosie wants to know how so she can start leaving hidden messages on all of Ruby's photos since she basically hogs all blog time.
ReplyDeleteI am kinda' glad that my furkids are not into social media. I cannot keep up with it, myself! Hugs.
ReplyDeleteWe are always ahead of the humans CK, always!

Thank goodness, 'cause Mom doesn't take good selfies of her & I & I don't really like having the selfie thingy so close to my face. I can do plandids, though! And I agree with you when you say we kitties invented them! A star for you for your wonderful candids! Mew Mew & hugs! -Valentine (& Mom) of Noir Kitty Mews

ReplyDeletePlandids...I do that most of the time. I'm not waiting for mom to center the picture and fiddle diddle around with it. I gotta be me and then I'm gone.

Fantastic idea to promote plandids so we don't have to look at the flashy box.
ReplyDeleteThat's a new one for us, C.K. We think that first "plandid" is smashing, and we think you should add it to our hop. It stays open through midnight Thursday. We can't imagine anyone who wouldn't enjoy seeing a bit of C.K. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo and Cooper Murphy
ReplyDelete"Plandid" is a new term for me. But I agree, kitties have been doing that for years already. And it's a really great concept especially when treats are involved :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea, CK! I hadn't heard of "plandids" before, but I have done that before. Your plandid photo is perfect. I can't tell that you planned it at all. You look very natural. :)
