Word of the Day - Plandid

[Jace]

Word of the the Day - Plandid... verb...(Plan-did)

Meaning: A photo, often on Instagram, which is meant to look candid,
but is actually carefully planned.

Sample sentence: Perfect makeup, hair and lighting in that supposedly casual celebrity photo
are dead giveaways, it's a Plandid.

Although the word, plandid, sounds to me, like it means some sort of insect, or a flower species;
I believe you, that it is actually a photo that is planned to appear unplanned, but we can tell, it's planned.

Actually, it sounds more like....planned it.....to me!

I wound up going to the park today, even though I never plandid. Aaaahahahahahahahahaha

A portmanteau of planned + candid.

This just rings so true if anyone has been on social media......

The minute i saw this post 3 names of people i know popped into my head

I couldn't have found a better forum than this one of ours, no matter how carefully I might have plandid!

Some of the photographs online are difficult to guess about,
while others are very obviously, Plandids!

(I am always happy to learn how to use a word that is new to me. )

Can the word plandid be used for videos? Some of the dog and cat videos on YouTube are obviously plandids.

"#PLANDID: HOW TO MAKE YOUR PLANNED CANDID LOOK AUTHENTIC​

You know those photos where someone looks caught off guard, but perfectly framed in a beautiful background with magical lighting? It’s called a “plandid” and chances are, they knew the photo was being taken – even if it doesn’t look like it. In fact, that’s the point. A portmanteau for planned candid, this oxymoronic technique is taking Instagram by storm."
